Will these tires fit? (Quick question!)
« on: December 07, 2014, 11:42:43 AM »
Hello guys,

Just in the process of purchasing tires for my newly powdercoated rims and I have read up a lot and decided to go with battlax bt45's or Avon Roadriders.

The look I want to achieve (for rim/tires): http://cdn.silodrome.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/honda-cb750-cafe-racer.jpg

My bike is a Cb750 K7 and I just want to ensure that I get the right tires! Stock rims dims are:

Front: 3.50-19
Rear: 4.50-17A (What does the "A" mean?)

So, if I converted this correctly, these are equivalent:

Front:100/90-19
Rear: 110/90-17 OR 120/90-17 (?)

Is this correct? If so, can I just choose any tires that match these dimensions?

Thanks again for the help, all!

I put on my K8:

Front:100/90-19
Rear: 130/90-17

Both BT45 and the Roadriders are very good tires, you'll be happy with either.

Hey, thanks for the reply.

Im going with 100/90H-19 in the front and 120/80H-17 in the rear, both BT45's.

Before I purchase can anyone please confirm that these will work for me without issue?
