Rear Milk Racing 16”x1.85 wheel benefits over stock:
1. Knobby and wide tire means more grip – best possible traction
2. More tire options than on stock 19″x1.4
3. Better for trail and motocross riding – a 16″ tire is fatter, so you can also go with less pressure, and it is more resistant to pinching.
4. 16″ tire is more flexible, and you can have more traction on a hard surface like rocks, etc., with lower pressure
5. Main wheel weight is closer to the rotation center, which means less power to rotate the wheel – more extended range than on 19″ or 18″ with a similar tire.
6. More torque without sprocket change.
8. Stronger and wider rim
Milk Racing Wheels
Sold worldwide and test-proven by thousands of customers on six continents – the best quality/price wheels on the market. Upgraded, reinforced rims stained with anodizing process give them more scratch and corrosion-resistant surface than standard paint. Super strong upgraded stainless steel spokes and double-size brass nipples (stronger and more corrosion resistant than aluminum type) lanced with a 3-cross spoke pattern make Milk Racing wheels strong enough to withstand more than what Sur-Ron bike can stand. Our main goal is to give alternative wheel upgrade options for expensive competitors’ products and give the best product experience possible, providing as much hardware as possible to make it hassle-free for you to focus on riding rather than figuring out how to put an upgrade in.
Wheels always come with tools, spare spokes, spoke wrench, inner tube, rim band, and rim lock – you only miss fitting a tire on. If you need 100% Plug&Play wheels, we offer tire fitting as a standard offer. Wheels come ready to ride straight from the box. A tubeless system can be fitted as well. As a direct producer, we provide customization such as color combinations, dishing, and others.
FEATURES
MILK RACING Matte Anodized Rims
Featuring an enhanced width for optimal performance, our rims are engineered and therefore more robust compared to OEM. They come with an advanced coating that offers heightened scratch resistance.
FRONT HUB

– Double o-ring sealing (axle and spacer)
– 20x110mm size
– MTB Rotor Bolt Pattern
OEM Sur-Ron Rear Hub

RIM LOCK
Added as standard. We believe that you should get the best upgrade possible for the best price with as little as possible hassle. The rim lock prevents spinning the tire on the rim, so you don’t rip off the inner tube valve. You can ride on lower pressure for extra grip and upgrade your power without worrying about the inner tube valve, which is a common issue after.
LACING
3-Cross Pattern – strongest possible
TIRE FITMENT
FITMENT – Plug&Play option
We offer tire fitment, so the wheels come Plug&Play ready to ride straight from the box, saving you time and money (we might deflate the wheel for packing purposes).
BRANDS&MODELS
The biggest issue with oversized tires for Sur-Ron/Talaria is that they are hard to find and tell whether they will fit. So we select sizes so you don’t have to worry whether they will fit your bike.
BUDGET
– Generic Asian brands that are known for their excellent price-quality ratio – verified and tested by thousands of our clients worldwide and us.
STANDARD
– Average brands like Deli, Duro, Journey, Kenda, Heidenau, Wanda, CST, etc.
PREMIUM
– Top-end brands such as Pirelli, Michelin, Bridgestone, Dunlop, Metzeler, Mitas, Shinko, Maxxis, etc.
TERRAIN TYPE:
– ON-ROAD – only for dry&wet pavement/asphalt application. Not suitable for off-road and winter conditions.
– OFF-ROAD – great for all enduro/country-cross/motocross applications. Not suitable for on-road – almost no grip and tear off easily.
– TRIAL/DUAL – the best option if you ride both on and off-road. Long-lasting and have equal traction on all surfaces.
FRONT WHEEL tire size fitment
The front fork is key. We cannot advise on every fork brand&model as all of them are different, but here are a few tips:
Any of our 21″ tires will fit any upside-down fork like a DNM Volcano inverted OEM fork, Manitou Dorado, DVO Onyx, or KKE. Also to standard (not inverted) Marzocchi Bomber 58, Fox 40, and other 27.5″ and 29″ size forks works with any 21″ wheel/tire. Almost all 26″ forks, along with RST Killah, are NOT compatible with 21″ wheels/tires.
WIDE 19″, 18″, and 16″ tire sizes will fit the above-mentioned forks, but it might hit fork covers, so you would need to either trim the tire, cut the covers, or take the covers off
REGULAR 19″, 18″, and 16″ tire sizes will fit almost any fork.
Any SUPERWIDE tire will fit ONLY* DNM front fork (or sometimes FOX), but it might need to be trimmed, or/and fork covers need to be cut or taken off. Nevertheless, we do not recommend this size for the front as it might rub the fork at some point.
For KKE, RST Killah, FASTACE, or Talaria Factory forks with 19″ 18″ 16″ wheels, you should go only with REGULAR tire size. Those forks are very narrow at the bottom of the upper section, which may cause WIDE/SUPERWIDE tire rub.
Please contact us if you have any questions or doubts about fork fitment – we can advise you about tire width so you can decide yourself based on the very fork you have.
REAR WHEEL tire size fitment
– REGURAL, WIDE (any diameter) size – no wheel modification
– SUPERWIDE (any diameter) size – wheel modification is required so the tire doesn’t interfere with the chain.
– Dishing/offsetting – We move the rim to the left on spokes
– Trimming – we trim the tire knobs
We highly recommend Dishing option – no grip loss on one side of the tire.
No modification is required on the bike itself for REGURAL, WIDE tire size. For SUPERWIDE, depending on your chain length, you might need to change the kickstand bolt for shorter (we include the bolt in the package). Installation details in MANUALS.
TUBELESS SYSTEM for off-road application
NUETECH Tubliss Gen. 2.0 – the best possible upgrade for the wheel. It allows you to run much lower tire pressures safely, and dropping the pressure increases the contact patch, instantly increasing traction and providing protection for the rim. The stiffer the tire’s sidewall, the lower pressure you can run – this creates a new level of traction and performance.
TUBELESS SYSTEM for on-road application
Available soon.
CUSTOM OPTIONS
ANODIZED
Parts are treated to create a protective oxide layer on their surface. This process offers benefits like enhanced corrosion resistance, improved durability, and the ability to add color or decorative finishes to the aluminum parts. This process allows us to show the original surface texture.
POWDER COATED
Parts are covered with a dry powder paint, which is then cured to form a durable finish. This process provides advantages such as excellent corrosion resistance, a wide range of color options, and a smooth, even appearance. This process hides the original surface texture under the paint layer.
REAR ROTOR
The larger wheel needs more power to stop, and a brake upgrade is highly recommended. Magura MDR-P 220mm Floating – the best and the strongest rotor available on the market. Adapted and pre-mounted with thread-locking fluid. Wheels come with caliper spacers.
BALANCING
The wheel will be balanced using Electronic Dynamic Wheel Balancer and adhesive steel weights.
DUAL HUB
Lancing the wheel on a special dual hub allows you to use a double-disc braking system. You can still use a single disc – we add a free ABS cover for not used side if you plan to upgrade your braking system later.

🇺🇸Sean lujan –
Great setup with 19″ front , wheel is built nice and came laced up ready to roll, tire looks killer and is fat but not too heavy, grips decent on most terrain, I needed it for a ride and they expedited my shipping to ensure I received my order before the ride. I had my setup trimmed and it fit snug. I will be ordering again…
🇩🇪Mathias –
Great wheel and great upgrade, just a différent bike now with much better grip
🇺🇸Joe Martin –
I git the 16″ rear wheel. I ride it HARD on very rocky trails. It’s held up really well.
🇫🇷Guillaume Darier –
Delivered within a reasonable time, with a few spare tools and rails. Plug & play assembly without any hassle, dishing is enough. The outside diameter is, as expected, significantly smaller than the original, making it look even more like a big toy. Demolition level gives the equivalent of going from 48 to 52, and it makes a huge difference! It gets up on its own to no end!
🇺🇸Ryan Kemplin –
16″ Milk Racing rear wheel installed!
🇺🇸Karthik Pradeep –
Good company. It’ll hold up if you don’t treat it like a real dirt bike. Took it to the mx track and cracked a rim and bent a few spokes. They stood behind their product though 10/10
🇦🇺Lukas White –
Looks amazing, feels real nice.
🇺🇸Eric –
I had the opportunity to try it several times and frankly it’s perfect off road.
🇺🇸Scott –
My Milk Racing 16 inch is a work of art
🇨🇦DouG Nowlan –
I currently run that set up, I’m happy with it.
Bryan –
