Default tire question

The 97 zx6r comes with a 120/65/17 front tire. I am looking at Power Races and 2CT's and they dont have that size.

Should i go with 120/60/17 or 120/70/17, will i have a clearance issue with the front fender if i go bigger?

Which profile would be better for a track bike?

Thanks

Either one will fit just fine. The 70's will increase the ride hieght slightly.

I use the 120/70 and your ride height will vary with the compound you use. PRC's are a little taller then others but you will not have any clearance issues. Also what are you using the bike for? I don't recommend using the PR's on the street, the 2ct's are good street tires though.
