CB500 rear rim swap with CB750 question
« on: October 03, 2014, 01:30:48 PM »
Trying to find a new rear 18 inch rim for my cb500. .  factory size is 1.85 x 18 and somewhat hard to find one at
a good price, but I see a bunch of new CB750 rear rims. .  they are 2.15 x 18. . .both 40 spokes. .   the difference being about
 5/16th or .300 of an inch width. .  in my way of thinking why not go for the slightly wider rim. .  ??   Does anyone
 know if there are any fitment / spoke  issues with this change ??
