Thanks!

I think you speak about the PURPLE Bike!

In front is 130/60/13 and at rear 140/70/13
Of course you need to change the wheels if you want bigger tires

:D Well, they do look like OEM 14 " to me!

But I can ask in another way:

"Is it possible to use OEM 14 " rims and 130/60/14 front and 140/70/14 rear on PCX?"

@ PCX-rider: In front you can't use 130/60/14 The original rims are too narrow to install large tires,

The maximum I have install in original rims is 110/70/14 in front and 120/70/14 at rear
If you want bigger tires you need to change the rims for 13" and then you can instal max in front: 130/60/13
and at rear 130/70/13 if you not change your air box or 150/70/13 if you change air box and your shocks for http://www.powerbypcx.com/achat-amortis ... 89745.html

@JLP: For the t-shirt RUN PCX I'm not sure but I think is Gang's2wheels do that: http://www.facebook.com/Gangs2WheelsPCXFC?fref=ts

Got the 130/60/13 on the front but it was sooo fat that it could not make it past the forks. Whats the next smaller size that would fit and clear the shocks

Depend the brand you use, if you use IRC tires you don't have any problem, i install only this brand in my shop,
Before I was installed Pirelli tires but then you need to file with a flat lime little bit the front fork right.

If you instal 120/60 you don't hava any problem

@ khoachino : I never try 120/70 I was thought maybe to high but actually when I make rough measurement should be ok

Update on the 120/70, its rubbing on the forks. I ended up shaving some of the edge of the tire to make it fit.

Its the tread part that was trimmed, its just like tread wear. I dont think it could affect the tire integrity in any way. I commute on a motorcycle 70 miles a day so safety is always my concern, even on my scooter

I had to shave the "hairs" off of my 120, but not the tread. (only would have rubbed the paint off my fork)
