Topic: Wheel and Tire help needed.

[The Mayor]

I've recently bought a 1973 CB350F. Loving it so far! Right now, I've got what I assume are stock wheels. For tires, I've got Cheng Shins?

Front: 3.50/3.75H18
Rear: MN90-18 (4.00-18)

Little dumb when it comes to motorcycle tires, so sorry if I ask something stupid! I'd like to go with an updated-tread sport type tire - but something thats very cost effective. I also like the look of same sizes on the front and back. What are my options in sticking with the rims I have (assuming stock) and would there be a reason to go with a wider rim (I'm guessing just for the front)?

Thanks for any advice!

bridgestone battle axes, i hear they are great. and they supposedly  make them to fit. finding them might be hard unless you order them on-line.

 if not dunlop make some nice tire too.

Avon Roadriders....have them on my 74 360t and my 78 cb550k.........I'm happy with them but they are not the cheapest tire out there

Thanks guys. If I wanted to have roughly the same height and width on the front and back - I'm I looking at replacing my rim? Whats the limits on the stock setup?
