    This has most likely been ask be for but does anyone know if a 150 fits alright on the street glide rear, I'm looking at going away from the dunlops to Metz front & rear? I hope to get them fit this weekend thanks for your answers.

    You will find that a 150 fits ok,but you will need to check the clearance at the lower belt cover,and alter if reqd.

    Some bikes require the belt cover to have a minor adjustment,but most are ok

    I am running a 150 on the rear of my RoadKing which is the same rear end,without any problems,and my wheels are 18".

    You will find that Metzelers measure slightly wider than some of the other tyres on the market.
