I have a 99 Yamaha Venture with 02 California sidecar and it's time for a new rear tire.
I've been reading so many reviews that my head is spinning. No one in my area is driving a sidecar rig, so........

Dunlop? Metzeler? or??????

Thanks in advance!

Go take a ride on the Darkside . You may want to try a car tire on the rear. I an using a Dunlop 195-60-16 on my 2000 classic 1500 and love it.

Have you thought about the front tire?

I've decided to head to the Darkside....if I read correctly, my 150/90-15 translates to a 165/80-15 and a fellow on the site even provided a link to find the tire.

I haven't thought about the front because it's still in good shape. What are your thoughts Paul?

I was thinking car tires all around, My rig doesn't lean and I want to try some winter driving.
