My z1300 Has a standard 17 inch back wheel. This limits my tyre choice as I run with a sidecar attached. Can anyone tell me if there is an alternative available, preferably 16 inch or 18 inch? Thank you in advance for any help.

You would probably enjoy a read through Robert Bolduc's 1300 topic which includes his resolve to the same dilemma regarding wheel size.

Yeh anyone know of a car tyre that will fit onto the rear rim without modification to it, I remember years ago on another 13 I had with a sidecar I put a vintage car tyre on, gave me at least 4 inches of tread on the road, trouble is it was only speed rated to 80kph, but it never blew apart at higher speeds, not that I ever went fast :-)
after tuesday even the calendar goes WTF
