Anyone notice the tires on the modified X1's in the movie Ghostrider?
Has this already been discussed?
It looks like to me that they have mounted a 120 mm rear Michelin Anakee to the front rim, and a 150mm rear Anakee to the rear.
Somebody should try this out and report if it works on the Uly.
They look pretty cool, right?

buy these tires for your Uly


so I don't have to waste my money


you should buy them, not me

Smallest Anakee I've seen is a rear 130/80HR-17. Maybe if I run the front of the muffler into a stump she wouldn't rub?

Tried the MT60-R Corsa 160/60VR-17 on the rear of the uly without any adverse effects but don't think I'd ever be willing to go smaller without a rim swap.

I so want to spoon on a set of TKC-80's, or a tire like it, if someone out there would just make a size to fit the beast.
