Well...according to my tire guy, here's what they said. The ME880's do come in a WWW but you usually have to special order since they aren't that popular. The WWW's in the Dunlop version are pretty common.
Here's the numbers....rear: 150/80-16 front: 130/80-16 not sure about the front number though, I was told 80-16 over the phone but I checked my front tire and it says 90-16, but these numbers were for a 2005.
