ok ive got a 1993 yamaha xj600 and the rear tire dimensions are 130/70-18. i have no clue which of these numbers means width but does anyone know what tire size would make my rear tire like an inch or so wider? my rear end is real squirlly around corners and i was thinking this could be the solution, any advise is much appreciated
