Default Wide tire kit
Will someone tell me if I have to use the fender brackets, screws and the cable straps that includes the Dyna Wide tire kit 180?
I have a street bob 06.

I got a piece of wire stuck in my stock 160 tirethe other day. I had them put on the SE 180 tire, and it fit with no problem, no kit necessary.The bike seems more stable in tight turns now and looks bitchin,but I've read that some people have had problems withthis tire wearing out quickly. Next time Im going with Metzler 880s.

don't need the kit. you can go as big as 200 rear tire with no kit. just be sure wiring is secure in clips

No kit needed - the SE tire is pretty soft and does'nt look to me like it will last me through the summer...

I have talked to alot of people about that 200 and will it fit on the bike? Maybe will it fit on the rim? Not for long you need at least a 5.5" rim to mount it without it puking off the rim under load.
