(Part 2) Best tires & inner tubes according to redditors
We found 61 Reddit comments discussing the best tires & inner tubes. We ranked the 58 resulting products by number of redditors who mentioned them. Here are the products ranked 21-40. You can also go back to the previous section.
Fun fact: Every part for every elite 80 ever made should fit. They didn't change anything throughout the production run. Except the headlight, you have the old version(upgrade to the modular version if yours ever dies. You'll spend about $100 to upgrade and then you can just replace the $11 bulb.), and the front brake, you have the old version.

Kenda K270 Dual/Enduro Rear Motorcycle Bias Tire - 510-17 71C https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BUNM1CG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_EojmDb2SWB2Z1
I put these on my 550 but I went up to 26” tires. This link to amazon is the stock size you have on there now. Sliverbacks are a nice mud tire but $160-200 a piece. For the riding you sound like you want to do these tires in the link will be perfect. Also for $240 for all four it’s not bad. My girlfriend and my daughter ride the 550 now and go everywhere I go with my mud tires on my 1000 XP.

They make them. These fit on my Goldwing, but I am not sure if they would fit your application.

Looking further, here are some that say car compatible. Looks like searching for uxcell might be the answer and you might get some cool colors.

You can also check out http://www.procycle.us/bikepages/xt225.html for lots of tire sizes, and options if you are interested at looking at more street oriented tires or supermoto combos. They also have a nice selection of DS related supplies for the XT225 but should carry over to your XT250
Found this on Amazon based on /u/almondmilk 's comment. The tread pattern seems to match the one on the Busa.

Found it!
Used this link to help me determine the part number

Found another one, so I was wrong that they don't make ATV tires in 23". I'd have to check the load rating on these.

Cargo, haven't bought anything here yet:
-PMR rear rack and sissy bar.
Haven't decided between side racks:
-Option 1 - metal looks sturdy but has just 2 mounting points
-Option 2 - great that it attaches around back for extra stability, not sure how many actual mounting points it has
-Option 3 PMR again, I like that they seem to hug the bike well but not sure if metal panniers can be used, or just bags. And in fact these only seem to have 2 mounting points as well... what's the weight capacity on any of these setups if they all only have 2 mounting points?
Still researching:
-SM footpegs or similar wide option
-LED headlight bulb
-Steel brake lines
-Windscreen
-What the hell taillight I have and where to find a flat metal sheet to get my license plate to mount on it, since the existing metal plate is broken
-Ceramic coating for FMF PowerBomb header
-Ceramic wheel bearings link link link. Expensive, but would be neat if price were no object. Will be doing mostly street riding.
-Lithium battery or capacitor - this looks appealing, and ThumperTalk carries a capacitor that would cut down on weight but would mean no electric start. I have a kick start kit though so maybe I want to live without a battery, not sure.
-Iridium CR9EIX plug
-Tool kit in one of those black plastic canisters at the rear of the bike on the left, opposite the exhaust tip
-Seat Concepts seat
-Find passenger pegs & mounts to add to the S subframe
Frivolous but tempting:

Yeah definitely don't want that. You want these.
Don't be cheap about tires. It makes the biggest difference of any one thing you can do your machine.
If you want to go really cheap this is about the bottom of the barrel I'd get for your machine.
Use tractor trailer inner tubes that are 10-20 or 10-22 sized inner tubes.
Here is the cheapest I could find on Amazon
Pilot Street I believe. These..
This
It's been a pretty decent tire for me.
Take some heavy duty contractor bags, fill them with sand of desired weight, tape them tight, and place them in the backpack.
For added features, you can make a Bulgarian Bag using a truck inner tube. You can use this bag for all of those bodyweight exercises by balancing or strapping it on your legs or shoulders like so.
It's a Bridgestone that looks very similar to this
And I had [this] (http://static.chaparral-racing.com/productimages/600/190-MS-06.jpg) Michelin before that I liked more. However, I'm not sure if the problem is because I don't like the tire, or if it's just because the tire is new and doesn't grip very well yet.
