cool. perfect means need or no need to roll rear fender?

bro, front 8.5" ET+30 might be a bit aggressive but stll got change to clear. My +32 already got very minor rubbing (not noticeable) when full turn s if +30 might rub outer fender.

Rear 10" ET+35 confirm will rub wthout fender roll. Bro gr8olff 10" ET+37 already got minor rub with fender roll. For mine, it is 10" ET+38. So ar no rubbing without fender roll but only front load. I ave yet to try rear load. I believe 1 passenger behind should be fine but will try 2 passengers behind if got chance. 3 passengers (full load) behind will be a challenge but my last resort s to rll my fender if necessary. My specs if fender roll should have no problem. Thats why Wilson said perfect. Anything more will rub for sure.

It also depends on the type of tyres you use. I use Continental DW tyres which are quit soft with rounded sidewall so would further reduce the chances of rubbing. Some tyres got wide sidewall, especially runflats should try to avoid if you want aggressive set-up. The Conti DWs are one of the best tyres that I have used so far. Tirerack review and rankin is NO.1. The tyres are also very comfortable. I am quite surprised that I don't feel much difference in terms of comfort and bumpiness between the current 19" and my stock 16".

thanks for the detail explanation
i thought 8.5J +30 for front should be safe (although look aggresive) because breyton gts 19" comes with 8.5J +30 for front and they are so many bros running breyton gts. anyway, look vs comfort is mutually exclusive ... want to look swee sure got some pain-in-the-ass

it seems like Continental DW is good tyre. too bad it is not available in local market and must PI ... sigh
your setup is great ... swee + problem free

Agree. At the end of the day individual people has different taste and priority.
