wILL A 170/60/17 FIT ? 95 f3

 

ive got a 170 on the back of my 96 f3

 

If the wheel is intended originally for a 180, you can safely go 1 size smaller on the wheel. Much like if you have a 4.5" rim, I would think the widest you'd want is a 170.

 

im pretty sure its made for a 160

 

Look somewhere on your wheel you'll see the numbers 4.50 or 5.00, to 5.50 stamped on your rim, which refers to the width. that will tell you the maximum size tire you can use.

 

i think there made for 160 but i have a 180

 

stock size is 160 and i would probably stick with that, the bike was engineered to take that size tire.Going bigger or smaller can change how the bike feels and handles. That being said i dont know how noticeable this would be going up jsut to a 170

 

generally speaking, you can safely step up one tire size on most wheels. the turn in will be slower but shouldnt become unstable.

 

Front: 120/60/17
Rear: 160/60/17

 

i got a 180 when its supposed to be 160 on my 98. like ita lot better!
