    If it has to do with tires & wheels, then you're in the right place.
    Best tire for a Katana? What's the tread life on a particular brand ? Size of a stock rim?
    Chains & Sprockets? These questions and so much more are addressed right here !



    well my thread got closed and i was trying to fix a mistake but i have a 140/80/17 on there will the 150/60/17 still work or can i go bigger

    Well maybe there is a reason for that thread being closed?? Like that question being asked about a dozen times a month.
    To answer your question biggest tire you should use on that rim is 150/50/17 or 150/60/17. I do know of at least 1 person that runs the 160/60/17 Metzler M1 without a problem also.

      I run a 160/60/17 on my 93. Fits fine and I haven't had any problems with it. Dunlop Qualifier for the record.

        Same here. I'm looking for a new set myself. I might drop back to the stock size.

              If only there was some kind of resource. Like a newbie thread. Or maybe even a Wiki where we could store information like that. Hmmmm...

                Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a
                mistake when you make it again.
