    Best handling combo for 17 rear 18 front?

    Hey guys. Hope this hasn't been beat to death, but lots of searching yielded no answers to what I'm after. I just picked up my Vmax and it needs tires. It has a 17" rear wheel, and an 18" front wheel. It currently sports a 170/60zr17 rear tire and a 110/90mc18 front. I don't feel like this is...

    RC 18 inch rear wheel

    I just bought an 18 inch RC rear wheel from Sean. Along with the wheel, and the cush bushings, there is a needle bearing, a "hollow" tube, and 2 seals. One seal was already installed on the right side of the wheel. So I'm assuming that everything will will be placed into the left side of the...

    Tires for 18 inch rims

    I'm looking at going to radials sometime in the near future. What are the available choices for 18 inch rear rims? I know that 17 inch rims have more choices, but I don't like the empty space there is around the tire and the fender. I wonder about something like this...

    180/55/ 18 offset question

    Gentlemen, Name is Jim. New V Max owner. Just picked up this 97 and it just had a new rear rim installed before I bought it. Been looking at previous posts and have seen the suggested fixes for rear wheel alignment with a stock rim, but this has a 6 inch wide 18 inch rim with a 180/55/18 Avon...

    Shinko 230 170/80 15 and 110/90 18

    Just got these delivered today and installed today as well. Riding home my bike felt, well, really different. Awkward even. Kinda wobbly, sloppy feeling. Anyone that has used/is using these tires care to chime in?

    18" wheels again

    This is now happening, a guy here in NZ wants one so I'm ordering a new wheel and making it work for a stock situation. There are some wheels available from ebay but I don't know how reliable that source will be in the future. The wheels pictured below are another source (cheapish) and are...

    18" Wheel Choices

    I'm looking to convert to radial tires and looking for input on choices of 18" wheels we have for the Vmax. I have found very few that carry 18" wheels. I know RMS Sportmax carries a 18" wheel set ($1800 for ft and r) but I was thinking along the lines of a sportbike style wheel which would...

    110/80-18 radial too narrow?

    Going with a metz 880 180/55-18 in the rear. I know for the front 120/70-18 is the radial most choose to use on stock rim. However, michelin makes the pilot in 110/80-18 which is closer to stock height. However, will this tire look too narow? Will it be an ok match with the 880 in the rear?
