    Can we upsize Dominar 250 tyres?

    Hello Wonderful People!

    After my previous post where all of you told me to test ride the bikes so as I can understand which one I want, I did so! And now here we are. I experienced slippage and improper braking on the D250 BS6 stock tyres (could be because it was an overly ridden test mule, but still...).

    Now the million dolla question: Can we upgrade the tyres of D250 with that of Husky Svart 250 (yeah the scrambler ones) or the D400 ones? Basically can the stock wheels hold 110 front and 150 rear tyre sizes or will it burst off the beading?

    Please help me in making proper buying decision.



    PS: Yeah! I am that guy, who researches for months and months before spending his 2 Lakhs.

Although I had a good riding experience before that, I did need better specifications as I like speeding up quite often. For my size upgrade, I went for Michelin Tyres. This was because they come in varied size options, hence I could get my perfect match. I could easily feel the difference that getting premium tyres brought to my biking spree.
      Hi can you please provide the tyre size, model and price you got.

        The Bajaj Dominar 250 is shod with 130/70 17 tyres at rear, which performs up to the mark sighting bike's dimensions. Upsizing might affect the overall handling and mileage of the Dominar, however if you still want to opt for fatter tyre go for 140/70 17.http://krogerfeedback.today/ Bajaj Dominar 250 wears tyres of 17 size.
