Aug 15, 2010 #4 Although the oppositive of what the original question is, the Suzuki Boulevade C109 has a 240/55-16 rear tyre. Has anyone tried one of those? Or looked into pricing/choices? I wouldn't mind the slightly longer legs it would provide.

What is ment when people refer to darkside, is that when you use a car rear tyre or something?

If you pull a camper, you really should consider going darkside. More meat on the road to control your stops.
