Anyone know what size car tire will fit the rear stock rim of a 2006 Ultra Classic? Is it even possible? Thanks

Timo,

Could you give me a bit more detail? How does a 15 inch tire fit onto a 16 inch rim? What brand of tire did you use? Is 145r 15 the only numbers for the size? Why was the brake a hassle?

Sorry for all the questions. I'm just learning all this stuff.

Thanks,
Dan

replaced the wheel with a custom car size 15" - the tire is a michelin car tire.

there are NO car tires that will fit the stock wheel and carry the load

you can install the SE road king rear and that is a radial that will last or install the SE road king fender, swing arm etc - and a custom wheel and then use a 16" car tire.

no good cheap answers -

the cheapest option is the factory tires and replace them regularly
