Default 240 wide tire kit

Are there any companies out there that make a 240 wide tire kit for the Street Bob?

never seen one for a 240... 240 is the LARGEST i would ever go... it is right on the lip of loss of handling for the look of a fatty rear tire... i have several guys i ride with that rock a 240... it is decent but makes the bike only like to go STRAIT, turning becomes a pain and you really have to slow down into your turns... but hey it looks cool right... i am not sure of the companies out there, but i belive there is a company that makes a 280 kit

www.heartlandbiker.com also, and good luck please keep us posted. I probably would have done the 240 or larger if $$ was no object.

man for those prices it just does not seem at all worth it.... Guess it all depends on the value one places on a fatter rear tire.

Any info you need mate just PM me , i had a 250 fitted in November 08.
Your quite correct it isnt a cheap mod and a lot of the kits out there are chit !, you need to do some serious research and be 100% convinced that its what you wanna do -there's no going back lol.
