After research I learned those are soft and will not last that long . I myself and considering Pirelli SL26 or Michelin Sport Sc tires . If that is the same size tires you have then yes otherwise measure the clearances .

tire calculators online can tell you the outside diameters, and tell you all about the sizes.

Hmmmm... I wasnt able to find any reviews on these tires and was going by recommendation by a forum member. Although I did here the same thing about the pirelli's.
It doesnt look like neither the pirelli or michelin have a tire bigger then 130/70. So I think ill have to stick with the Avons. I got about 8k out of the stock tires As long as I get close to that ill be happy.

It's always a compromise between the softness (grip) and hardness (longevity).
I went with the Michelin Pilot Sport SC's (probably on the softer side) for my Linhai 300- but let me tell ya what- the few times I was caught in the rain, I damn sure appreciated that extra grip. Oh boy did I- compared to the stock, harder tires which slid around. They got me home without sliding off into a ditch or under a bus. Let's see how much you'll care about that tire longevity after you're laid up in a hospital! Or dead.
Longevity should not be the only thing that matters to you, is the point.
