I'm looking for a 3.50 or 3.00-17 rear knobby tire for my 99 Road Toad. Also looking for a 3.00-19 front knobby tire.

SRD,
There are some tire threads on this forum that list multiple sources.
One easy place to start is motorcycle super store .com - you can narrow choices by diameter and tire width.
There are Metric/Inch conversion charts online. The one I have taped above my computer reads:
2.75/3.00 = 90/90
3.25/3.50 = 100/90
First number on metric code is the width, 2nd number is the height
Prices on MSS are good, but there may be better deals elsewhere.

It's hard to find those sizes in a rough knobby. A while back the only ones I could find were Maxxis brand in a matching pair. Their site has charts on widths and such. I hope this helps!.

OK a little edit here--the rear is a 100/100-17 M7-305 which is 4.3 inches wide and should fit a RT. The matching front is a 70/100-19 M7-304. I haven't ordered the tires yet but I think they will work on a Road Toad. It's all I could find in a rough knobby.

I did buy my last set of tires from Paul at SH. I'd check with him first. Also the rear I mentioned might require removal of the chain guard.

Call Don at "All Moto Tire" - (253) 224-4716. If there is a tire available he will know about it and can probably get it for you.
