180/60-16 Motorcycle Tires

7 models in 180/60-16, from 5 brands we stock. Order online for delivery, or have them fitted at the shop in Orange.

What 180/60-16 means

180 is the section width in millimetres, measured across the tread. 60 is the aspect ratio: the sidewall is 60% of the section width, which works out to roughly 108 mm here. 16 is the rim diameter in inches — the wheel this tire mounts on.

On most motorcycles a 180/60-16 is a rear tire.

The sizes listed for each model are the sizes it is made in. Confirm against the size on your own bike before ordering — wheel swaps change fitment.
