Hello guys! Been thinking, a friend offered me his front tyre at a very low price. His front tyre is 120/60-17 but according to what I read here, my front says 110/70-17. He said it will fit my Zeal though...?

He also offered me a rear tyre an almost brand new one BT010 160/70/17, but mine says 140/70-17, Im afraid to make wrong decisions since I have limited budget... :whocares:

Please help. :grouphug:
TIA

I'd be sceptical... The 120 might fit up front, but the 160 probably won't fit in the swing arm. Bigger tyres means it'll turn in slower. Tyres are one area where you shouldn't skimp. I'd suggest staying with the standard 110 70-17 front and 140 70-17 rear.
