CB350/400 / 400-4 wheel rim width
« on: March 02, 2018, 09:48:00 PM »
Hi, recently joined and apologies as I am sure I am going to re invent many topics 
However as a starting point I am interested in wheel rim widths for my 400-4.going cafe racer route with Avon tyres? and wondering on maximum wheel rim widths .
My project currently has 100 section front , 110 rear Avons fitted, albeit flat, on standard width rims which look decidedly marginal to me !
Research on t'internet has suggested 2.10 front and 2.5 rear, possibly 2.75 rear?. Clearly the tyres fitted need wider rims to make safe / aesthetically pleasing but wondered what advice you can give re widest wheel rim/tyre combination .
Cheers, Pete
