I am running this combo and the BT45 did rub on the bottom of the stuff stopper a little bit. You may have to heat the stopper up just a little to make sure there is clearance, it is not much to make it clear.Thinking of going Double Darkside with the BT45 and the only question I have is about the width of the tire and also having the stuff stopper fender extender. Anybody running the BT45 with this combination and are there any clearance issues? With the stock size tire and the fender extender the clearance between the tire and the extender are pretty narrow.
I have almost 20,000 miles with that front tire with mostly two lane roads and my tire has a ton of rubber in the middle but the sides are almost to the wear bars. I am still very happy with this tire after my last Metzler front tire that lasted less then 4000 miles.
