Default wide tires

Has anyone tried to run a 180 55 17 on the rear of their dyna's. I know the wide tire kit has a 180 60 17, but just would like to know how a littleshorter tire looks on it. Thanks for the help.

I've wondered the same thing many times.

Didn't we talk about this about 6 months ago and no one spoke up?

I have the 180 60 17 screamin eagle but, I think the 180 55 17 would be just as goodand possiblygive just a tad bit more upper fender clearence.

Dookie, I haven't mounted the 180 55 that I have sitting because
it is a Buell multi compound radial and I am unsure about safety,
mixing this with the stock front tire.

Have you seen a standard compound 180 55??
If so, let me know where it is, I'll get it and report back to you.
