Hi guys first noob question : I can get a good deal on a set of dunlop k180's for my cb 250,thing is I've got 1.85 front & rear will the above size be to much of a squeeze?

Ya, 130 is too big. 110 is what you want. And are you sure your wheels are 1.85 front an rear? Thats pretty big for a 250.

Cheers man,yeah defo 1.85 x 18 It's stamped on the side of the rim,the bikes a cb250rs which I'm planning on cafe-ing, don't know which direction to go with it to be honest :-\ what's a good size set up for that width rim?

CB250RS, don't fit oversize tyres, it will handle like a wet turd.
Stock sizes work real well and allow you to corner flat out everywhere except tight 180 hairpin bends
Nice little bikes, you can fit early XR parts and big bore kit (280cc) then scare a lot of bigger bikes on anything twisty
