That is where I went actually. I was trying to find out if the Shinko would fit/work. DK’s sizing tool, when selecting for my bike shows that tire as a possible choice for the rear. I think I’ll call them and ask. It just dosnt seem to me like it will fit.

It will not fit since it's for a 16" rear rim, not a 17"

Look at your rim or your current tire. If it's a 17 then I doubt you could stretch that 16 enough to get it to fit...
