They are not really the same. The TZ250 was a racing version and I've heard bad things about hitting pot holes with those rims. The TZR250 was the road version. Look for a stamp on the rim stating either DOT or the European equivalent. If it has one of those stamps, then it is road worthy. If not, you shouldn't use it.

I have a TZR250 rear rim, if i get a chance tonight i'll take a closeup pic of the stamping on it and post it for you if you would like.
