anyplace in beaumont or the golden triangle area i can get a used 180/55zr17 tire? maybe you bike guys that have been dealing with bikes know. i just need to put a used tire till my bike sells, i dont need anything new.

I don't think they sell used tires. You might want to try ebay.

let me look tonight. i probably have a 190 that will fit.........$200 is pretty stout for a tire.

do not let them touch your bike. they are notorious for mounting tires backwards

i found a 190/50/17 shinko. probably 30% tread left or so.

I have a set of '05 gsxr1000 tires/wheels (black with rotors/sprocket, bearings, etc) that have <1000 miles on then that maybe would work out too.

let me know

yes, you can fit a 190 tire on a 600, thats what i ran on my 06 gsxr 600, it was a pilot power 2 ct though, i love those tires.

Because you are also reducing the sidewall, you should fine
