What size tire?
« on: May 23, 2010, 01:36:21 PM »
Has anyone put a WIDER backtire on their X500?

It would be nice to put a wider one, just for esthetics. There is plenty of room on the sides (1.575 inch) and above, but I'm not sure if it's safe.

The stock backtire = 150/70-14.

Any comment is welcome!  :D

Thanks,
Gijs

the bigger ( heavier)  the tyre , the harder to rotate, so you lose accelaration, and more prone to aquaplaning
