FZRMatt Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 And how wide can I go in the back? I know a few guys on here ride fizzers, drop some knowledge on me.I run Avon Roadrider 140/70/18 rear and 120/70/17 front. I don't know how wide you can go, but it handles very nicely. I think stock for the front is 110. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rollnhot Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 How wide is your rear rim, 5.5 inch will take a 180 tire. Just got Pirelli Angels for $230 from Jake Wison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted February 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Having an 18 inch rear wheel really limits what I can shop for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Ask Chevysoldier. He's been through this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevysoldier Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 Shinko 006 Podiums or Bridgestone BT-14 is all I could find that would fit the rear. If memory serves, the BT14 you is the only one you can get in the stock size. Or if you go a size up, you can get the Shinko or BT14. You can only go one size bigger before the tire will rub the swingarm, although I don't remember the size and I don't have the bike here to look at as I went up a size.http://www.ohioriders.net/showthread.php?t=57791&highlight=tire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted February 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Thanks Chevy. I just bought a yosh slip on on Ebay used for $125.

Hoblick Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 avon storm 2 ultra might suit your needsnice sport touring tire.your options are kind of limited, but if your options are the shinko, bridgestone, and the avons, id tell you to steer towards the avons, a decent sport touring tire that is a multi compund tire. youll get the mileage from it, but will also get great performance out of the tire wet or dry.here is the SKU , model number, size, load rating, and rim sizes it will fit. recommended for 4.25, but will fit 4 -- 4.50" widths4566517 AV56 150/70ZR18 (70W) 4.25 4.00 - 4.50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
