Need tire recommendations

Asking for another rider...

"I have another Motorcycle (besides my Wing) that is in need of a new rear tire. I would love to put a CT on it but so far have found nothing that will fit. It currently has an Avon AM23 200/55B-18 on it now.
Any suggestions out there?"

"Its a total custom Motorcycle, Vtwin cruiser, chopper guys softail style frame, Sputhe Engineering motor. There are lots of choices in 18 inch, but none narrow enough in a CT. Finished building it in 1999 and has been on the road ever since. I cannot go wider than the 200mm that is on it now."

Thanks,
Murgie!

that's tough...

the 215/45/19 I'm running is pretty narrow for an 18" rim..

How much actual clearance do you have under there? can you get to a 205 (remember different tires have different actual widths) or are you trying to look for a 195 for a 18" rim?

I passed your question back to the OP. I will let you know...

Wow....18" is going to be hard to find the right size! Don't know if anyone has wanted that size yet here! Sir, you might just have to do your own homework on this one!


Welcome to the darkside sir and sorry we don't have data on that.
