Tyre 185R15 (original for Griffith 200) or 165R15
Tube Tubeless

The chrome wheels have been tubeless since June 2007; the silver-painted wheels have been tubeless since April 2011; and the stainless steel wheels have been tubeless since October 2008.

The black-painted wire wheels have always been tubeless. Tubes are only required if fitting tube-type tyres.

If you have the older, tubed wheels or are fitting tube-type tyres you will need 175/185R15 tubes or 155/165R15 tubes and we recommend 15/16" rim bands.
Notes The Griffith 200 has been factory fitted with wire wheels.
