OK... I'll admit, I am really leaning on Bridgestone tires...well... just because.
I see in the parts catalog that the 175HS came with 3.00 - 18 on both front and rear.
That is the only size the Exedra tires come in.
I'm used to putting a wider tire in the rear but that usually on a much more powerful bike.
My 175HS has old decaying Avon off road tires on it. It has a 2.75 front and 3.5 rear. But I plan to ride it on the street.
Heidenau K45 3.0-18 front and 3.5-18 K65 rear is an option but expensive.
Duro HF317 3x18 is another option for front and Duro HF314 3.5 x18 for rear
IRC GS11 makes a 3x18 and 3.5x18 but those are only H rated.
The Michelin Gazelle comes in a 3.00 - 18
Nobody seems to make a matching set of street tires that are 2.75x18 and 3.5x 18 like what is currently on the bike.
I'm open to thoughts or other tire suggestions. Thanks!
