Thanks.

I've found the Avon AM26s work well.

The Avon AM26 is available in 120/80-16 and 130/80-18?

I'm having trouble finding them here in the lower 48. I'll try going straight to Avon. Thanks for the post back.

The cheapest prices you'll find and they'll ship to the US. With your high US $ they cost practically nothing.
