Hey Guys,
Stupid question but when I bought the bike the bloke gave me a 130-90-18 as a spare for the bike.
The bike is an 07 Ec300 and currently runs a 120-90-18.
As far as I know it will fit but will it clear everything?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks Mark

Thankyou, I just wasn't sure about the width.
Cheers Mark

You can fit up to a 140 on the bike. I myself like to run a narrow tire. It helps the bike to drop into the corners.

I run a 130/80 18 s12 as the wider s12's dont chunk in the rocks as much,, and the lower profile makes the bike just a hair shorter,, which helps me too.. and I like the cornering better on the meaty tire..

The Michelins are narrow for their size anyway. The 120s seem too narrow for the bike except in sand and the 130 is a good choice.
