Default Tire question

Ok so I got the Dunlop sizes that fits my '02 Fatboy but what about other brands...

130/90/16 would that fit from Metzler?

I know it is a dumb question but I am still waiting for my manual and am just starting to get things straight. Thank you very much in advance even if it is a retarded question

I assume youa re looking for a front tire? That would fit the front and rear, but when I got Metzelers on my 02 fatboy I put a 150/80/16 on the rear and it fit fine.

I am actualy looking for both, and the first number is width correct?

so the 150 would be a little wider then the 130?

If so that is perfect
