Default Help with tube/spoke rims/tires

I have a 2013 Heritage with stock spoke wheels, not the smooth rims.

Can I run either Bias or Radial on these rims using tubes?

Im looking to replace original D402F with a MT90-HB-16 wide white wall on the front.

And the rear is a D401 and I am looking at a 150/80HB-16 wide white wall to replace that one.

I am also understanding that the 401 is really for a Dyna or Sportster? But it's what came on my bike from the factory.

Weird that the mix a 401 in the rear and a 402 up front, but I guess it worked for me for just over 12,000 miles.

Thanks for any feed back.

Oh, and Im looking at getting them from Dennis Kirk or Revzilla both $309.00 total shipped.

Not so weird...

Actually that's Original equipment if you have Blackwalls. A lot of softails came with that exact combo.

Dunlop doesn't make a 150 in a 402 and don't make a MT90 in a 401

I have a 2014 heritage. I too wanted to go with www. I just wanted to get better mileage out of them. I decided on American elites. They look great and ride well. They are made by Dunlop if that matters, But they claim to get to get a lot more miles out of the tire.. I have put about 4000 miles on them they look new and ride great....just my 2cts
