Michelin Power RS Tires
Hi Everyone,
I just purchased a new ninja 300 and I wanted to change the stock tire to the Michelin Power RS tires. However when trying to purchase the Power RS tires I noticed the back tire is not available and/or is not made in the stock rear tire size. Is it safe to get a different size? If so which one would I get? Also Why that tire over another size? Stock Size: Front Tire: 110/70-17 Back Tire: 140/70-17 Power RS Size: Front Tire available 110/70-17 Rear Tire (which one?): 150/60ZR17 66W 160/60ZR17 69W 180/55ZR17 73W 180/60ZR17 75W 190/50ZR17 73W Thanks for all your help |

Get the 150, anything else would be way too large for that rim

You can use the 150 and will be fine , just don't go any larger. Here is an article about using different sizes on the same rim http://www.sportrider.com/does-size-matter |
