It seems like every tire maker uses a different way to measure their tire,some use different ways on front vrs. rear. Then throw in white walls and holy crap It is very confusing to my feeble mind
Just slow down,,
Don't mix the numbers together like that. Go back out to the bike and write down just the numbers on the front tire,, then on another paper write down the numbers for the back tire.
Use the link RK4ME posted. Read it a couple times,, look for other "Tires Explained" links on the web
Walk into a local shop and ask,, write down what they tell ya,, there is no obligation to buy if you just ask questions.
Even a local car tire sales will be able to help.
You'll figure it out.
