Anyone have any idea how a tire like this would work to replace the stock size rear 170/60R18.
It's advertised as a V-Rod tire but the profile is at least heading the right direction.

I believe that 180/55ZR18 is too wide for the CB's stock rear rim. A 160/60ZR18 may work though.

I called a local Honda dealer this morning to find out what Honda would recommend since there isn't a single 170/60R18 available.  He checked his catalog for OEM tire availability.  All were discontinued but he did find that Dunlop is adding a 170/60R18 to their Roadsmart series.  It's supposed to be available the end of March.
