When you buy a tire, does every single number of the size have to be matched? For example, when the owner‘s manual states the size of 120/90-17, can you use 120/90-18? My parts catalogue doesn‘t have the size I need.(Which motorcycle parts shop sell tires for low price?)Thank you.
The first number is tread width in millimeters. The second number is sidewall height in percentage of tread width. The third number is rim size (diameter in inches). No, as a general rule you can't put a different size tire on. You definitely can't put a tire made for an 18 inch rim on a 17 inch rim.
