Looks like a small truck tire you have there, does it fit the Standard rim and fender ?? RH

Vredestien Comtrac 175 75 16 fits the rim like a glove fits on an 07 RS with all factory Belt guards and brake parts and no fender modifications even with the progressive spring on a factory shock and, two up and today we loaded bike same weight as we would have on a one week trip. and it scales out same front and rear tire and no rubing.

So if you have comparably equipped bike, It's a bolt on Darkside Tire discussed in the Darkside thread, but get your real info on the darkside forums. Search Google Darkside tires.

I'm Darkside number 285, and I think the 7th registered Roadstar darksider.
MPG is the same oddly, I thought it would be worse. Traction is insane. At 38 PSI you can hardly tell it from a Bike Tire. $135 lasts 30K or more. Drawback? You have to service the bearings before then.

It looks monstrous! gathers a crowd at Bike enthusiast stops.

Personally, i gave 6.5 years of my time to this Country USMC, So I do whatever I want that's Legal. I put this tire on my bike just like other Road* Darksiders have. I love the tire, I'll do it again when i wear it out.
