NON-OEM Front Tires

[Dan_Ashley]

Which NON-OEM front tires do you use?
Also,
Is the fender clearance on them tight, or is it just fine?

I'm not looking for a discussion of MC vs Car tires, just to know what non-OEM tires you've installed, and what problems you had with the physical installation of them on the Spyder.

Here's a thread on my front tires: http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/showthread.php?48795-New-Front-Tires-Installed

I've seen no rubbing issues with them.

:agree: Still waiting to see if anybody has found a good aftermarket tire for the new 15" fronts... :bbq::bbq::bbq:

As I see it..!!

if you get the same size you will have no problem. The oem tires do well in front and Vee is now producing a spyder tire "Arachnid". But I would try to match to the back tire...hyea:

I have the 15" Federal Evo's and will be mounting them when I get back from Florida in July

KUMHO

fits well, those 'white' wedges are there to show you will have room between the tire and fender....

Installed the Kumho Solus KH16, 185/65-14. on the front this spring. Probably would have been better if I would of only went with the 175/65 since I did have to shim the fenders. No big deal, but a little time consuming.
