WHAT IS THE Right Tube Size for Tires?

GZ250 · 10-21-2009, 11:41 PM

The Question is I can find the tires by the Rim size (110/90-16 - front) (130/90-15 - rear), but when I look for the tubes under the rim size 15 and 16 it gives several options under the same rim size (tube size, stem type, etc). So which tube size should I select that fits these tires?

Tire History:

05 GZ - Need new tires for both wheels otherwise can't pass safety inspection. Front tire (Metzeler) will be replaced first time after 23300 miles. Rear tire (Metzeler) was replaced in fall 2007 with (Cheng Shin). Needs to be replaced again after 2 years.

The dealership I work with are asking $50 more for both tires. They only install if I buy from them. Instalation charges for both tires is $130. I looked at BikeBandit and I can get both tires cheaper. Now I have to find a place to get them installed. (Can't take the trouble of doing myself).

Thanks
