12/12 for street. you dont want different size rims on the street. also the 12's provide much more stability and handling.

ok cool thanks for the input, 12's it is. i was thinking about getting these michelin bopper tires in size 130/70/12. you guys think they will suffice? i wasnt sure if i should run different size tires on the front and back. thanks again
