Hi Guys,
I'm working on a CB750, I want to turn into a "classic" Café

They recommend 18"x 2,50 rear, and 19"x 2,50 front.
Original is mounted 18"x 2,15 and 19"x 1,85 if i'm correct.

I do think it would look very cool though..... so which tyres should then be used ?
Not the "standard" 4R18 and 3,25R19 I would guess ?
Or should I go for 2x 18"x2,50 ? and are there spokes for that ?
this is the idea:
But with these short fenders and rims like these:
