250 rear tire install!!
Hey any one out there have a thought on an install of a rear 250 Metzler rear tire and whats involved, Or does anyone know of a company that can help us? We know the draw backs but mainly we are into dessert riding and high speed stability. Think it would be cool, They now even have an incredible 280 coming out soon for the custom market. Apparently these are Z rated. Anyone try it or thinking of it. Kossman.net will widen stock wheels. Thanks,

WHats the point? 500hp streetbikes do fine with a 190/50, going as fast as 7.63 in the 1/4.
Besides the fact that you would have to fit a custom 18"rim to the tire and they are not made with sportbikes in mind...only choppers.
I wouldnt trust them under me at any speed above 70mph.
Pose factor would be off the scale though.
