I have a 2006 Bully with stock front and rear rim and a 240 tire. How big can I SAFELY go on the stock rim for both front and rear as I have heard different info. Ideally the bigger the better...haha.

Thank you

I believe 160/60 and 260/40 are the common plus sizes on the stock rims. I was looking at going this route with Metzeler Cruisetec. Avon Cobra Chrome is also highly rated but seems to be out of stock most places.

Our general consensus is 160 and 260 respectively...
. Just keep on reading here. Cheers 🍻

Don't have a 109 anymore, but on my Victory I have run every tire. Avon is my favorite, but based on customer and friend's reviews, my cruisetecs are sitting right next to me. Going to put them on Sunday. My wife has been running the Avons for quite a few years now and she told me flat out, "nope, not having it with the cruisetec, I want to stay Avon". We ride in the rain and they are great. If in fact the cruistec is better than the Avon, it is an amazing tire. LOL
