Default 120/70R19 & 180/60R16 Avons - Opinions Wanted

Looking at changing the front wheel and both tires on my 2010 RGC. Thinking of the Avon Cobras sizes 120/70R19 and 180/60R16. Here are my reasons why:

1. Radial Tires
2. Slightly larger front tire and wheel so I get the 21" look.
3. I keep the full suspension travel by not having to lower the front.

I ride solo and do not have a tour pack. So riding heavily loaded isn't an issue. Your thoughts...

Thanks,

Jim

If I was going to buy wheels anyway, no doubt I would go with a 21, especially if you like or want that look. You wont be happy till you get it.
