'''Radials''': Your editor checked all the major tire manufacturer websites and none of them had any radials recommended for the (smallish) rim sizes on the EX250J, especially on the rear. There were one or two that said you could put a 110/70ZR-17 on the front, but none had a compatible rear. '''Do not''' combine one radial and one bias-ply tire.
