#18028 n2dwoodz (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 133 TIRES 5 Years, 3 Months ago   I need to repalce the stock whitewalls on my '05 (front tires cupped at 5,500 mis.-guess that's what I get for not keeping them properly inflated). Seems like I recall someone had posted that they had foun a good price awhile back on Metzler ME880s. can't find that thread. Anyone recall, or point me to a good vendor? Want to stay with the WIDE stripe... Also, can I go up to a 160 on the rear? Any problems (rubbing, etc.) doing that? Spring is coming!

There's sales going on all the time. You can't get a Metz 880 WWW in 160.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #18031 RoadieFF (Moderator) Moderator Posts: 2594 Re:TIRES 5 Years, 3 Months ago   I've heard of folks finding good prices at http://www.ronayers.com/index.cfm.<br><br>Post edited by: RoadieFF, at: 2007/02/22 09:55   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #18032 Roadkill1962 (User) ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ Platinum Boarder Posts: 3213 Re:TIRES 5 Years, 3 Months ago   n2dwoodz-- That was me...they just arrived 2 days ago, and they look perfect! Can't wait to get them on.

Bummer...Is it worth shopping around for a 160 in a different brand? Everyone seems sold on the Metzlers... Don't want to go with blackwalls. Like the look of the Avon &quot;Gangstas&quot;, but they only make 140s, I think... Hey Roadkill, did you stay with stock size?   Logged     N2DWOODZ   The administrator has disabled public write access. #18037 Roadkill1962 (User) ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ Platinum Boarder Posts: 3213 Re:TIRES 5 Years, 3 Months ago   yup, stuck with the stock size...didn't see any reason not to. Going to a 160 corrects the speedo by a few MPH and that's it...by all accounts, it ends up looking the same as the 150 by the time it's squeezed onto the rim. I'd rather just get the best tire possible in stock size and adjust my wrist on the throttle a bit...
