402 Dunlops are almost finished on my 06 Heritage, planning on using metz 880 tires next. Should I go with the same factory size or is there any benefits using different sizes? ie. price, handling, load rating etc. Thanks.

 

I was thinking about the Metz 880 in the 210 size for the rear of my FatBoy.

 

if you like the way the bike rides and handles,,then I would stick to factory size,,changing tire size may look cool ,,but could change things,,,,

 

If you are satisfied with the bike stick to the recommended tire sizes, if you go with another size(bigger/wider) things get funny sometimes, tires that rub the belt, tires that hit the underside of the rear fender and rub thru the wiring and short out the rear tail lights, ask me how I know know all this.

 

Ok thanks it is a pretty stock bike so I might as well just stick with what works...
