fatter rear tyre was created by mart13
has anyone stuck a fatter rear tyre on a 16" rim ? did you have any issues with the chain run ? i wasn't thinking of going mad and i know it'll make the handling intresting but a 140 or 150 would look better :laugh:

what model??
add it to your signiture ...for an example ...see below in my reply....V
it will usually tell what bikes a guy has and sometimes note which is the everyday riding bike...location ect....also tells folks who may p.m you with parts ect or tips...
as for a stock 16" rim they can take a 130 if it is a drum brake and a 140 if it is a disk...bigger tires can be put on the disk model too but it just egg shapes the profile ,if it even fits in the swingarm......
a 130 is gonna spread to the right profile for a stock 16" rim imo....and handle great compared to putting a different profile wider tire on the wrong rim....
good luck...craig
