18 Inch Rear Slick Tires

Post by cpw888 »

Hi there, I am new to your forum and was wondering if anyone knows of where to get slicks to fit my 18inch rear on my KR1-S.

If not, do you know if the RGV rear wheel or Aprilia RS 250 rear wheel fits in better, as I have tried an RS one and it seemed to need some modifications...


Thanks for any help you can give,

C.

The RGV VJ22 17" wheel fits and just requires new spacers making up.

So no chance of any 18 inch slicks?
