Default 2006 Road King Classic on SG Shocks

Hey guys, my rear tire is starting to go, and Ive entertained the idea joining y'all on the darkside. Im a little confused from the searching and reading Ive done here, and realize my belt guard will likely have to be removed or modified to accommodate a car tire. Can someone please outline the car size tires I am to be searching for as the only size Ive found to reference my tire currently is the MU85B16 size (HD Dunlop Whitewalls).


Thanks in advance guys!

Default Pre-09 tire

You've got a 3 inch wheel, so you are very limited in what tire you can run.


The only pre-09 tires I have heard of are taxi tires. If you read all the posts on this site, I think they will help.

Just get a motorcycle tire , the 1 option you have for a car tire usually doesn't work.it will physically fit but usually has wobble! Some have been lucky , I wasn't one of them.
