Rear tyre

Post by britaxcooper »

Quick question really, Im going to get a new rear tyre for the NC30 tomorrow.

As 150/60/18 has very limited choice, would a 160/60/18 be suitable? The place im going to seem's to stock alot more choices in the latter size, they only stock BT014s in the 150/60 size.

A 160 will go on but it will distort the shape of the tyre. Give Graeme France a call, i'm pretty sure he has 090s in the right size..
