Who makes rear tires for the LT?

[BecketMa]

Looks as if the FAQ on tires is outdated?
From what I can tell, these are the current rear tires for the LT:

Avon Storm ST AV56 160/70R17^ 79V
Bridgestone BT020-M 160/70B17
Bridgestone BT021R BW TL 160/70ZR17M/C 73W
Dunlop 160/70ZR17 73W BW
Metzler ME880 Marathon 160/70 B17 M/C 79V
Michelin Macadam AM 50 160/70-17 73V
Contenintal none
Pirelli none
73=805 lbs
V=149mph
W=168
Z=>148mph

What needs to be added or is incorrect?

Hi, Bob - Curtis (CharlieVT) posted a list of recommended and spec'd tires for the LT, just a day or so ago. I can't find that thread at the moment, butt it 'sorta' tracked with your list --- although I don't believe the tires with the 73V nor the 73W weight rating, in your list, are correct for the LT's rear tire. According to BMW, the rear min. weight load rating should be 402kg, or 886#. The 73 rating doesn't make it there, does it? The 79 does, at 437kg. I'll find Curtis' list shortly and post a link to it here. Best.

Looks as if the DUnlop 205s are 73W also!

Looks as if that just leaves:

METZ 880, Avon Storm ST AV56 and BT020R BW TL (BIAS) M @79V

There are undoubtly other tires, front and rear, which are load rated and will fit the K100LT but these are the matched sets of tires that the manufacturers list in their fitment guides for the KLT.
