Consult the Dunlop Technical Data Chart or Dunlop to ensure that the tires you select are correct for the rims.
Correct rim width may be critical to handling and stability. A tire which is installed on a wider than recommended rim will have a "flattened" profile, and a rider may easily reach the edge of the tread during cornering. A narrow rim will alter the tire profile, concentrating tire wear in a very small area during cornering, with a smaller contact patch during braking. Remember--tire clearances are important.
Fitment to these rims may result in slippage or air loss. Harley-Davidson 18" and 19" CM contour rims are not compatible with Dunlop tires. Consult Dunlop if in doubt and before fitting pre-1980 Harley-Davidson motorcycles. |
