Hello!

Im trying to use my old rear R rim as a front X rim.
The smallest sport front tyre is 110/70. Recommended width of rim for this size is 3.00". I have 2.75". Does anyone have some experiences with that kind of problem? Would this 0.25" difference matter?
Thanx

it will not fit.

Im sorry to ask again. I was browsing through web and found quite a few sites with rim/tyre charts. Here is one:

As you see, black wall radial has 120/70/R17 with acceptable rim 2.75
So, there should be no problems with 110/70/R17 and 2.75 rim?

Look at this example as well:

As you can see, 2.75 is not listed as recommended rim size for 110/70/R17, BUT NEITHER is 4.25 for 160/60/R17 and all of us is using it, as it is recommended by Yamaha.

This is quite confusing to me.

Well I'll answer my question
I contacted Dunlop. They have responded this:

So, I will try this and see what happens. Well... its gonna take few weeks to do all I have to on my motorcycle and I'll report then.

Cheers!
