Rims (Read 86 times)

quentin99 Junior Member Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 71	Rims 06/02/14 at 09:41:28 So I need to get new tires for my bike. But I want a fatter back tire. What rims can you put on the bike that are a direct bolt up replacement?

Even then finding a bolt on wheel is next to impossible. But you might find a rim that's usable. c50 or c90 maybe.

They also reduce your lean angle, making tight turns or mountain sweepers a lot more work. And the extra weight increases your stopping distance.
