Where can I find a car tire to fit a 07 Ultra. I'm ready to try going to the dark side.

Its going to be real hard if not out of luck finding one for the early years of Harley. The 09's and above have a wider rim to accept the CT.(195-65-16)

Google up, the dark side is your best bet for finding one. Sorry

Ditto, Google the dark side would be your best solution. Thats what I did, and thats how I found out what size and type to get. I have a 2010 Ultra Limited and I put a Bridgestone Turenza on it but it does have a wider frame than your bike so it was a little easier for me. I have put 9500 miles on it and it is fantastic. It handles like a dream in every instance.

Car tires are car tires for a reason.

Mc tires are mc tires for a reason.

Back when I had a CT on my VStar there was a database but I don't remember there being many HD listings but then I wasn't looking?
