Anyone know where of a good place to get some new wheels?
I have an '84 VT500 ascot. Its shaft drive so it creates a bit of a problem with the rear wheel. You see they're 18" wheels. I can't find real sport tires that will fit on my wheels. Stock sizes are: front 100/90-18, rear 110/90-18. I could fit a 130 in back. It's just that most sport tires are 16" or 17". Am I stuck with sport touring tires or is there another way. Please help.
Thanks
