SM wheels

I have seen Warp9 wheels for sale with tires, but I'm not sure if the tires are to big for the bike.
I have a Husaberg FE 450 2009, and the the Warp9 have this tires: Michelin tires: Back: 180/55 ZR 17 Front: 120/70 ZR 17

This is all new never used, and he ask for half the price it costs new.
So I wonder if the tires are to big? 180/55 seems to big, but I'm not sure.
And the trip to purchase the wheels are over 7 hours one way. :?
So I need to be sure before I say Yes to this.

Thanks!

What size are the rims? The rear tyre is to fat. Will never fit. With a 5.00 and a 150/160 you should be okay, maybe some rubbing.

No way it will fit. I had problems fitting a Dunlop 160.

A narrow 160 on a 5" rim will fit.

I ended up running a mich 150 on a 5".

For a no issues fit, run a 4.25 or 4.5" rim and a 150, or narrow 160.

The stock Husabarg SM wheels are 4.25" on a 150.

I just sold a guy a wide 160 tire for his ktm 530. It might be the same swingarm as us. He said he runs used 190s that he gets from his buddy. He has to use a block plane and shave off the side of the tire to fit the swinger. I was in shock of the 190 number I didn't ask how much he had to shave off the sides.

Thanks for the information!

Then I have to wait and see if I find one that fit.

Thanks again for the information!
