    I'm looking into getting a typhoon after i've got rid of the runner.



    I know they've got tiny wee wheels with baloon tyres and i prefer bigger wheels with lower profile tyres (e.g. pilot sports)



    Will SR125 wheels go on it? :p (Will clearance be a problem?)



    ...And i dont suppose SR forks would fit on it?

    nope and nope.. depending on the moddle of typh you can fit a runner or nrg rear wheel, also unless you find a rare 3 stud wheel you have to use nrg forks to fit a runner/nrg wheel to it. you can change the fork bottoms for skipper items to fit the wheel but you need a runner 125 caliper then.



    well worth doing tho. also diff tyres can do alot to detract from the size of the whjeel but 13" on a typh look SICK

    It'll be an 03 with showa USD's and a 5 spoke 3stud 10" wheel upfront :p (look very similar to runner 50 ones except the bottoms are shorter)



    Will i need to jack up the back to fit a 13" runner wheel?

    nah, wheel goes straight on (the outer diameter of the wheel with tyre fitted is similar)
