If I remember correctly, the first number is width. The second number is the % of the width that the tire is high. The last number is the rim size. If I'm wrong I'm sure someone will pipe up (quietly of course 'cuz we all know about dem loud pipes). So the 120/90-18 is a tire that is 120mm wide. 120x 90% = 108 mm tall and made for an 18inch rim. So the only potential problem is the width clearance difference of 10mm from the current tire to the MT21 (which I love). dat brooklyn bum _______________________________________________________ Say Bye to Slow Internet! http://www.home.com/xinbox/signup.html
