cb550 rear tire size?
« on: May 22, 2010, 05:48:48 AM »
im about to get a new rear tire for my cb550k...
was wondering if i could go with a 140/90-18 or a 130/90-18 without rubbing the swing arm

also...anyone know where i can pick up white walls in this size?

Are you running a standard width rim on this bike? If so I think you'll find even a 120 may not sit really well on it.
There are lots of tyre posts on this forum, have you had a search around?
I hope you find the info you need.
Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators.
We haven't met yet.
