Default Kuhmo Ecsta MX on stock wheels?

So i need new tires for my stock wheels and i want something with a little more life on them and are cheaper. so i was looking at these tires on tire rack and was wondering if i should get 245 for the rear or 225??? cuz i have read that the stocks r 225 w/ the contact patch of a 245 and that most non-stock rear tires need to b ordered in 245?

can i get some confirmation on this plz

Thanx
Bo

The MX doesn't come in 245's for the stock wheels, so you're stuck with the 225's. In my experience, the rears didn't last any longer than the S02s, but they are good tires for the price.

I have S03's and really like them! Especially being in Florida where we get quite a bit of rain during the year. They handle great in the wet and dry, and I will most likely use these over the S02's.
