100/90-18 Tire on front of CB400F

Just got a good deal on some Bridgestone spitfires for my CB400F. How tight a fit is the 100/90-18 in the front? The only 90/90 I could find were Bridgestone BT 45 and Conti TKV 11.
Thanks

I thought I could help out here - I checked the front tire on the wife's 400F and it just has 3.60/19 on it - it's a Dunlop K81. Don't know if that helps you at all, but it's a good fit!

I have a 100/90/18 Dunlop 501 on the front of my wifes 400, no problem. It looks to me as if these non-radials are getting skinnier anyway.

I got that on mine. Brake line is a bit tight in its guide bracket, but there is no rubbing or contact anywhere.
The bike is supposedly a bit more difficult to turn in with the bigger rubber, but once the turn is going, it sticks like glue.
