Actually if you scroll down you would see that he answers your question, going beyond the 110/70-16 size for the front would screw you up. The Pirelli 140/70-16 Diablos in both those sizes are awesome tires on the Blast. The regular stock Pirelli are very good as well. The Avons are very nice in both sizes and give a few hundred miles more, but the serious touring tire - not recommended for hard corner carving/twisties - is the Pirelli 66 - people are getting 5000 miles on a rear - almost double the life of a stock tire. Steer away from Dunlop, Goodrich, Michilin, and Kenda - lousy dangerous tires all.
