Has anyone tried the BT46 120/80 on the front? I've read mixed reports of the 130/70 causing tight fits, wondering if this would be a better fit?

Is the BT46 load and speed rated for the bike?

Here is a shot of Bridgestone BT46s in 130/70 and 120/80 sizes. The BT45 in 130/70 was a perfect fit but the BT46 proves to be wider. Some riders report these fit without rub issues while others have problems. I have seen some mounted that had trouble getting a credit card between the tire...

Yes I am running the 120/80/18 on my ST and it works great. The 130/70/18 is now made wider then in the past on the BT-46
Thank you!
