Rear rim width on the Voyager XII's?
OK, I know this section is for the Voyager XII's, and I'm a double 1300 owner, but I'm getting ready to go over to the darkside since I pull a sidecar. HOWEVER, the 1300's have a 16" rear wheel instead of the XII's 15" wheel, so all the Nexen tires won't fit. Also, when looking at the rim width recommendations they all say 4.5" and wider, but the 1300's have just a 3.5" width. What is the rim width of the XII's? Are most guys cheating a bit and running the tire anyway?
