Default Replacement tires

Anybody replace their 18" rear with anything other than the stock Dunlop 407? Can't find anything in the 180/55b18 size.

Yeah, I think yer pretty much stuck there, but I could be wrong. I was lucky, last fall my dealer was doing a special on tires - any OEM for $200 installed. Didnt take me long to hop on that one.

That's a great deal. Wish one of the dealers around me would do that. I buy mine from Kutter at 20% off and take the wheel to an Indy for mounting. Saves me a bunch of $. Sure would benice to at least have a choice in tires but nobody makes a 180/55B-18 80H and the R18's only have a load rating of 74.
