    I am going to order some supermoto wheels and was wondering what size to get for on the front? I am going for a 17x5" rear wheel. Bike is for road use.

    How is the 17x5" rear wheel working out? Was fit-up ok? And who did you order from? I have a TE450 2007, and am wanting to put a 17x5" on the rear, just concerned about it actually fitting. Thanks man!!!
