Bigger Rear Tire For A Short Case Minarelli

[90GTVert]

120/90/10 looks pretty beefy next to that stock 90/90/10.



Apparently too beefy.





I even cut away part of the case just to be able to squeeze the tire in.



90/90/10 should be 16.4" tall and 3.5" wide. 120/90/10 should be 18.5" tall and 4.7" wide. If I can find something 17-17.5" tall and 4-4.25" wide it should be about perfect. A 100/90/10 would be 17.1" tall and 3.9" wide. I imagine that will be the closest I can get. Kinda disappointing after looking at this thing.

Michelin makes one half decent, not great, tire in 100/90/10. I found that a 3.50x10 is somewhere between 80/100/10 and 90/100/10. That would make it around 16.5" tall. Jeremey says a 4.0x10 is about 19" tall, way too much. I found a couple of tires that are 110/80/10. That comes out to 4.3"W x 16.9"T. I think that would be the beefiest thing I can squeeze in there. 110 might still be pushing it though.

I ordered the 110/80/10. I think the 110/80/10 is a pretty safe bet. It's the height that's getting me now. It's so tall that I can't rotate the tire. The 110/80/10 is just slightly shorter than the 100/90/10. The 110/80/10 will also give me 1/5" on each side that I don't have with the 120/90/10.

I got the 110/80/10 Michelin on today. Pretty nice fit. Took plenty of pics for anyone looking for tires for a short case minarelli.
