Default FXDC Tyres

Just ordered a set of chrome wheels & wide tyre kit for my bike, I think the rear tyre is a Screaming Eagle, is it worth me changing the width of the standard front tyre, or leaving it as is ?

You have a 19" wheel up front that is 100-120mm? Do you think another 10mm will make a difference? If so, change it. If not, go enjoy the ride.

You are fitting a Screaming Eagle tyre which is Dunlop? If so i,d keep them as a matching pair, Dunlop recommend a 100x90x19 front with your 2.5" rim.
When change time comes you could go for a matched pair from another company. Avons, Metzler are well approved on this site.

I (personally) don't buy in to that "Your tires need to match" stuff. I have been running the Pirelli Night dragon rear tire "Matched" with the stock Dunlop MH90 with no problems, but if you feel more comfortable matching your tires then go ahead and do it.
