FS Bridgestone skinny fronts tires

I have brand new Bridgestone front tires 90/580/17 slicks. These are perfect for drag racing. Great for clearing turbos and lowering the front down as low as possible.
$115 plus s/h

I didnt get it either and still dont. ITs small as hell and perfect for the dragstrip. i sell alot to drag racers. The size is for moto gp bikes. Ill have a pic soon. I should have my camera back soon. I can text one to you if you need it now.

Is there a speed rating on these (doubtful)? What size moto gp bikes use them?

Speed rating means nothing in drag racing........

my front tire...., is only rated at like 90 mph.........

I run a similar tire, but a pirelli.

I ran a 110/70 from a 500r for a long time........

I think i have seen one......, they look good, just not dot rated.......

lots of grudge guys use em, and if I run super comp next year, I will run one.......

Yeah, but it might mean something at 200+ mph over a mile, huh? I'd be more concerned about the weight of the bike at the track than the speed rating, but does it hurt to ask? No. Plus, since the tire is designed for a narrow rim, I would also be concerned about it popping the bead if you land a big wheelie on said heavy bike. He is selling the tire, and it is my prerogative to inquire.

Thanks.

Shane
