Im looking at some Mefo tyres, there's a 150/70-18, but im thinking this might be too wide and rub on the swing arm.... Anyone out there know what fits, or what doesn't, when it comes to the width and profile for an 18" tyre?

If yer intend rideing it on sealed roads only... go with the 150...
but for off road 130 max..
I have been thinking of going to a 18' rear on the XTR so I can run
110 & 120 tyres..bigger choice...
a wide tyre has a lower surface pressure & rolls across the top of a lose surface... where a narrower tyre will cut though the loss stuff in to the hard base easyer... But if yer on sand / deep mud go with the wide tyre..
