I possess a 66-plate Sportster equipped with 19-inch low-profile tires. I purchased it last year, and it is time to replace the two front tires. I have examined the codes, and they differ in width and load capacity. Could someone please provide the appropriate tyre specifications? I lack an owner's manual.

Are the wheels on the automobile aftermarket, as many individuals transition from regular alloys, resulting in varying tyre sizes?

What is currently installed on the wheels?

The wheels conform to the normal specifications for the SLine model. I am perplexed as to why anyone would replace three of the four tires with non-standard options, resulting in two different tires on the front (driving) axle.

Are we discussing tyre size or brand?

The same brand, TRIANGLE, is inexpensive however performs poorly in rainy conditions. Various dimensions and load capacities. Three tires are 235/35ZR19 91Y, while the other is 245/35ZR19 93Y (the exact specification), resulting in differing types on the front.

It likely possesses a complete set; nevertheless, it may have sustained an irreparable puncture, prompting the installation of an alternative upon the vehicle's sale.

I could get this if the rear tires were of the same (proper) specification, but they are not. One incorrect tyre, indeed, but three?

There are undoubtedly some peculiar individuals present.

Install a set of Goodyear Eagles on the vehicle, and its performance will significantly improve.
