Orion 14" supermoto wheels for RXB125XL

Does anyone have these? I need to confirm the rim width. Orion originally said 2.5, then 3.5 but the pictures seem to indicate 3.0. Assuming the RXB125XL uses standard pit bike wheels these should fit any pit bike but 3.5" wide is pushing it. My 12" SM wheels are 2.15/2.5

That's the same rims with tires! If you look closely it looks like J3.0x14 is stamped on the rim to the right but it's not all that clear, which is why I ask this question. Contrary to what Orion says I don't think they ever looked, or even know what they are looking at. Not the first time I've had to go around with them on what specifically they are selling.

PS You can build a cool street tracker with these 14" tires, and they are cheaper to boot. They are intended for 2.5-3.0 wide wheels.

Well it wouldn't matter if they knew how to measure wheels! I assume they did the top of the inside lip which tapers down so I'm guessing 3.0. What a bunch of morons. Whatever it is it's 's not 3.5 like they said...

Thx.
