front tire size

<< < (2/3) > >>

No I'm not looking for a beefy look, the fat girl is beefy as is, just something good, I have been running cobra Avon both front and rear and wasn't impressed with how quick the front got bold the rear still ok both at 8k lifetime. Does that letter H or R or B (bias or radial) in between the tire numbers matters?

I went with an E3 on the front after replacing the no longer available D206. The E3 being one of the most common I felt was the easiest to replace if needed on the road. Certainly not a great looking tread pattern but I have been very pleased with its performance. Rain or dry it has exceeded any expectations I had for a front tire. I had an E3 on the rear originally but replaced it with a taxi tire that I also feel very comfortable with. I have over 7000 on the front E3 now and 10,000 on the taxi tire and both look brand new and feel great on the road.

Larue, check the sidewall to see how old it is. If it's very old I wouldn't mount it myself.

No way of checking John it's on evil bay and its brand new with stickers. Close up pics look great cant really see anything like cracks on sidewalls or anything:(
