Ah'm sure the 235's are just direct replacements for the 750's so should be same size. Ah'l go and take a picky of an old 750 and a 235 side by side if ye want

hmmm, not that much difference in it, but the 7.50s just look so damned narrow.

i use 235s so i don't have to adjust the steering stops.

run them at 28psi on the front and 35 on the rear - a good balanced tyre in my opinion.

Ah use the 235's cos they're easier to get hold of, lots of places usually have them. Ah'm on general grabber at2's now, cheeper than bfg's

They seemed ok off road to me but wear down pretty quick on tarmac, that's why ah've got them on me other rims incase ah know ah'm goin' somewheres muddy. Try gettin' a hold of yella, ah'm sure he was doin' summit with Khumo's for sale.
