The stock tire sizes for my bike (98 thunderbird) are Front tire: 110/80ZR-18, Rear tire: 160/80ZR-16. As was stated in other posts there are limited tire options for this these sizes. What would happen if I used a 150 or a 180 on the rear? Would these tire fit the wheel?

When I changed out my tires on my 95 bird, I went to the AVon's AZ45 150's. Not sure if you could go up to the 180's.

The 150 are the OEM replacements that the are putting on now.
