I found a couple of sizes and then found them to be aramid belt instead of steel belted. The sizes Im looking at are both rear fitments.

160/70-17 87-4602 for the front
180/65-16  87-4600 for the rear

Whitewalls in a size pretty close to what we have now.

Was hoping to stay closer to what I have now 170 front and 200 rear...

Thoughts?

D/S rear and on the front I have the trip 7 in 140-80-17. I was testing the combination in some of our Sho Me twisties and liking what I felt. Oh-Austone rear. What I'm finding out is the W/W is a P I A to keep clean. BUT I like the look and I'm happy!  cooldude RIDE SAFE.

You are able to fit a 170 wide on the front ?

I have a 170 on it now and its working fine...I was the guy running a 275/50 on a 16x7 wheel on my Mustang in the day. And it fits with the front fender in place as well
