I rode a cr250 with a front double ribed sand tire because the used bike came with one. Unless you ride only sand, or have 2 sets of wheels I dont think it is worth it. I now ride my KX500 with my regular off road front and it actually seems more stable than the double ribed I had for my honda. The ribed fronts seem to kinda hook slide, hook slide. I like a more forgiving feel in the sand. Im no pro rider but do ride duns 10-20 times a year.
