I found this tire and rim and I do not know who makes it or what bike it is for and was hoping someone might know by taking a look at the photos at the links below. I can tell you the tire is made by Kings Tire and is labeled 2.75-10 and Rim: 1.75 with a maximum load of 282 pounds and is a tube type tire. The wheel rim has a bolt pattern of 2.75" between each bolt hole center and is 3.125" from side to side or hub face to hub face. The axle shaft hole is about 13/16" in diameter. The rim is also stamped with - J 1.60 x 10.

I found this in a foreclosure and it's in like new condition. The tire has obviously never been used and the rim seems to be in new condition also. I took it to Chapparal in San Bernardino, CA. to see if they could identify it but they were not sure except that it is a front wheel and guessed it could be made in China. They also suggested I get on this website to see if anyone here might know.

So does anyone here know what make the rim is and what bikes it would fit?
Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Thank you. :)

Looks like the now-discontinued UPC or ThumpStar hub, with the three-bolt setup for the brake rotor. It is missing the axle spacers that fit into those bearings, and are reduced in the center for a 15mm axle.

Thanks very much dirtbkr188 for the info and photo. I've been checking around for ThumpStar wheels and I agree this looks like that's what I have. From what I have discovered it should fit Honda XR50, CRF50 bikes and perhaps some Chinese made bikes. Does this sound about right? I'll probably put it on eBay for sale as is including the tire and tube but I'm trying to figure what the price should be. I'm thinking somewhere between $30 - $40. Would that be a good estimate for price? I think they were previously priced at around $85 or more by what I came across online. Anyway thanks again to you and also LongMooie and anyone else that might add their comments and suggestions.
