Hope this is not a silly question but will I have an issue with a 6" tire on my standard PL front fork? I know the tire will roll down each side from
across the top and is not a straight 6" flat across the top. By the ruler, it looks like it will be a snug fit as is. I was concerned about running
lower pressures on the sand and the tire rolling side to side on the rim. Will there be a rub issue inside the fork with the 6" if it does fit? I'm
sure it's been asked a million times and do apologize for a noob question such as this.
Thanks for the help again.

The midi and or 6inch tire looks like it will not fit but in fact it will .if you are mounting it on the stock rim it will be pulled in at the rim
which makes the tire narrower at the centre. I have even had to leave the tire a bit under inflated to get it through the small part of the fork and
then inflated it after it is in place but it will work trust me ,I have had that size of tire on two of my XR+'s with no issues.

Thank you dirtslide! Yes, for now they would be on the stock blah rim until I can get some bling!
