16" racing tires?

    So after some horse trading (the horse was really a three legged blind donkey), I've ended up with a rough looking 2000 Derbi GPR75. Would make a good candidate for Herrin Compound shenanigans but it has 16" wheels as opposed to the later 17". Does anyone make a decent 100/90-16 and 110/90-16 race tire?

    the 110 V compound is about as sticky as you can get if you have the room for them (111 mm).
    Its a front size.

    Bridgestone BT45 is an amazing tire, pretty much what everyone at Herrin's runs. Are you coming to the next round?

    My son (19 year old and current wera license holder) wants to. It needs a crank, piston and exhaust, so probably not the next round.

    Thanks for the advice. Pretty sure the BT45 will fit.

    BT45's are the best out there. They have grip in dry, wet, or cold weather and will last forever.
