i want to put street tires on my ct70.i think i'm putting a 120/90-10 in the rear do i need to put a different size in the front or the same size.
thank for your help.
what street tires do you guys recommend.

the rims are the same size so you could put the same size tire on the front as on the back.

Heidenau tires, they are fantastic! www.honda50.com

i was looking at Metzeler ME 7 Teen but the rear tire is a diffrent size then the front.does it matter if i put two rear tires on?

I'm not 100% positive on this, but the 120 rear tire may hit the fork legs up front. Some guys run a 100/90-10 up front, or front and back.

how about 100-80-10 front and back?will that work?i

On stock rims, I'd personally run a 110/80/10 front and back. You can fit a 120/70 on the rear, but the stock rims are technically too narrow to run a 120/70, but people do it all the time.

Metzler ME 7 Teens are great tires, as are the Heidenau K61's. Both are right around the same price.
