i have the 210 on my bike now.it sets it a little lower and dosent seem to be any wider.i will go back to the 200 when i wear this out.
i didnt wait.i put the 200 metz on.never rode the 210.
Anyone installed the 210 Metz or widened the rear wheel yet?
I know the options (210, 240 with wider wheel, and 250 Sumo) have been discussed to death, but anyone installed the 210 Metz or completed the wider wheel with 240 yet and have feedback?

I would like to hear from someone who has widened the rear wheel also....
I was thinking of doing the 240 extension that L&M came up with here soon... then I had my gf just mention to me about buying some camping gear soon... lol, so I guess we will seeI would like to hear from someone who has widened the rear wheel also....

Lol... shoosh... she might hear you then really break out the whipI hear the whip cracking....LOL.
Hmmm, brb 
I wanna know if the 240 rubs?
Do you think the tire would flex 1/4 or 1/8 inch and rub?
Can you lower the shock all the way and not rub?

It will rub...
The 240 will rub when it heats up... especially if you have a passenger... even with the shock adjusted. It looks like it will clear and will if your 175lbs or less and dont drive it for long periods of continous riden'... If you want the wide tire do it right... sumoX kit is not bad for the money sence it comes with everything! If you dont have the balls (skill) into hacking up a new bike though... sumoX is not for your do-it-your-selfer.
I speak from experience... I've done 2 sumoX kits. Will bedoing my personal after summer... The old lady put a stop o my fury accessory spending. Time to spend money on her Phantom she said. I know... Whip crackin'... but i have to sleep with her... and want to wake up the next morning! lol!

I read ALL of the prior posts last year on this and I am doing the Sumo X as well after this season.
Best mod going if you have the $$$'s. Only takes a little more to go First Class.

How much did the dealer charge you for the install?
I heard the 240 tire will fit on the stock rim with out issue, user: Yeyo on here has done it I hope he chimes in.Richard, if you don't mind me askin...

The 240 on the stock rim is equivalent to a 210. It bulges over the tire and can be unsafeI heard the 240 tire will fit on the stock rim with out issue, user: Yeyo on here has done it I hope he chimes in.
the 240 on a stock rim will ride on the center and when in a corner or curve it does not ride on the proper part on the tire,whitch can be dangerous.just be careful.
How much does the SumoX kit run for??? (sorry new to the forum) Also, so the bike doesnt rub the back tire with the SumoX Kit or it does on long rides? And how about with a passanger?
Price should be between $500-$700 depending on shop rates. My shop charges $75 per hour.Richard, if you don't mind me askin...

i'd like to know how the bike handles with the 250 as well! Its going to throw off the handling, i just wonder by how much?
I didn’t really notice much difference.
Sweet, well thats good to know. I really dont know much about these tires and what not since im coming from the sportbike scene, but are the 250's good for long rides? Also with the set up can you have passengers? Sorry little off the topic but might as well askI didn’t really notice much difference.
