Default KX front wheel on KLX300?

Hey all, does anyone happen to know if any generation/year KX wheel will fit a KLX300?

I noticed I have two cracks in my front rim while I was installing a new tire.

I'm installing a trailtech vapor so, I don't need the speed drive assembly on the front axle.

I've found several KX front wheels local. I found a nice one from a 2004 KX250 for cheap. KLX specific wheels are a little harder to find and more expensive.

I'm searching the forum but, if anyone knows off the top of their head I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.

Look up the brake rotors in aftermarket. If they are the same the wheels will swap. You just won't have the speedo drive and will need any spacers or have to make spacers to compensate for that. I've looked it up before and think the early 2000s ones do swap in axle size etc., but not absolutely certain. I think the castings are the same to start. KDX wheels will swap.

Thanks guys. I found a good price on a 1989 KDX200 front wheel so I bought that.
