#3397, "Another question- 215 or 225 tires?" In response to In response to 2
Right Hoot,
I've also read that people in stock OEM 17" rims from the GSX's or Talons (like mine) have in fact fit 225's on their rides. From what I understand, those rims are only 6.5" wide, so deductively speaking, 7" wide rims are an ample width for a 225 wide tire.
BTW, I'm very soon going to buy probably my own 17 x 7 rim/ tire combo and have been weighing the adv/disadv of both.
Can anyone perhaps comment on what they feel like may be a better choice? (I want a ride that is both quick and handles well...by going with a tire that is 225 instead of 215, is there a significant speed drop-off?)
