Hey all,

I have a few questions. My bike is now roadworthy except for the dryrotted tires it came with, so I'm in the market for a new set. I don't really know anything about tire fitment.


Firstly, the wheels I have are the comstars off of the 79K limited edition. Are all different years of comstars the same dimensions? If not, does anyone know the dimensions of the comstars that went on the 79L?

Secondly, the syntax for the dimensions of the tires for these bikes is strange--- it's in the form of something like 4.50 H17 4PR, for example. How does this translate to the standard format WWW/AAXDD?
