Car tire size for 07

I have seen quite a few threads on car tires for 09 and up models. What would be the correct car tire size for a rear application on an 07 FLHT?

Thanks,

You've only got a 3 " rim. The newer bikes have a 5 ", which allows the fitment of a car tire.

I just sent a PM to a member here asking the same question. I'll let you know what I find out.

I had a CT on my old bike. I now have an 07 Ultra and the only thing I don't like about the bike is the damn motorcycle tire on the back. This thing sux in the rain, curves, and braking distance. If I can't find a tire that will fit, I'll be changing the swingarm next winter

There are better bike tyres out there! Try Avon Venoms.
