i cant seem to find the answer online, if anyone has an answer, or a link to the proper thread, please inform me.
my 81 xs400 rear wheel is 16x2.15 and the current tire on the rim is 120/90/16
all the tires i can mostly find in that size range say that the recommended rim width is 3.00
im confused by this. can i put a tire that the manufacturer recommends as 3.00 on a 2.15?
if so, what is the max size i can shop for?
more specifically, here is the tire i want:
http://www.avonmoto.com/products/cruiser-touring-custom/cobra_ww
MT90B16 *WW rear tire (bottom of the list)
as you can see, they say the minimum rim width is 2.50
help me out bros. next stop for me is actually calling Avon to ask for an answer.
thanks!
