Hello, all,
Hopefully y'all can offer me some advice on tires for my 2018 T100 Bonni. I am presently running the stock Pirelli tires:
Front: 100/90 -18 Bias Ply Diameter 24.9" (wearing out 2 of the Pirelli fronts and the rear still has plenty of rubber....)
Rear: 150/70 R15 Radial Ply

I am considering purchasing the Avon Storm radial ply tires. Unfortunately they do not have the same size front. So I am considering this combination:
Front: Avon Storm 110/80 ZR18 Radial Ply, Diameter 24.9" (same as the Pirelli but 10mm wider)
Rear: Avon Storm 150/70 ZR 17 Radial Ply (Same diameter as the Pirelli).
Is there any downside to running a slightly wider tire in the front?
Thank you for your insite
Craig Taylor

The tire's profile will be slightly different so the turn in handling will be different. Thinking it may be a bit slower. Only you can determine if you'll like it.
