Best Website to buy tires?
I'm looking to get 16 inch diameter sport touring tires for a ninja 500. What is the best website to buy tires from?
rear is 130 and the sidewall is something I forgot on a 16 inch rim.
front is 100 ? 16

i usually get my tires from ironpony.com decent prices and they ship out fast. and you get a free t-shirt if you spend over 100bills.
mine is a 93 so I have 16 inch rims, SBTG sells race tires for the normal 17 inches.
I also dont want sport tires since they wear out faster than touring tires.
I dont plan on racing this bike, and in the midwest we dont have mountains or curvy roads so outside of track days (which wont happen on this bike) I dont need the best grip.
this is just a learning too, I just need good tires so I dont crash.

Might want to check local stores too. There is a local store here that usually beats online stores overall OTD since they offer free mouting/balancing if you bring in the wheels loose
the bike has a center stand so I can probably take the rear wheel off,
but I dont know what to do about the front since I dont have a front stand for it, even though it should be easier to remove.
Thinking about Bridgestone BT45's.
I know about car tires but don't know much about the reputations of bike tires besides the well known companies who make both.
Like Avons, Metzelers, Shinkos, Kendas, etc.
