Sorry, I know this is probably answered somewhere, but I'm at work trying to purchase these without wasting too much time.



Will a Dunlop K70 18-4.00 fit on the rear, or is it too wide? I know widths fluxuate depending on tire, and the manual calls for a 3.75.



Thanks,

Dave

With a welder anything is possible but I think keeping it stock is what you want unless you want to cut and weld. The cx swing arm has a lip on the inside of it. That's where the problem is. That's why we're limited to the stock tire size.

hmh, I thought my rear tire was a 110. 110mm = 4.3" I guess that's where my confusion lies.



I'll have to take a look at the swingarm.



edit...there it is. what don't you have detailed pictures of?



There really isn't an 1/8" to spare on the sides?

Just to add.A fatter tyre does not necessarily handle/grip better.The stock tyre on my other CX handles ever so slightly better.Tyres are designed to the frame geometry.
