Yep, you read that right. I am rather irritated at myself for having gone so long without catching it. Actually I did think noticed something "strange" with the rim off set a little while back but I was on my way out of the house and I honestly never got back to looking at it. So with having done my 200hr. service (first one I've done myself) I paid paticular attention to it. During the toe in check I realized that something really was wrong. One tire ACTUALLY was smaller than the other. Upon further inspection I discovered that both the tire and rim were not actually smaller but larger. It seems that during either my 100hr. service OR when the dealer fixed a loose wheel, someone got one of my tires/wheel mixed up with one from either a DK45s or a DK55/65, I'm not sure which. The combo looks to be one size larger than the OEM DK45SE. Needless to say I'm not happy with myself for it going for so many hours right under my nose. What can I say, I like my seat time. But more importantly, not super impressed (AGAIN) with my dealer. I'll need to have this address ASAP. I am only wondering where my tire and wheel is now.
Right side tire/wheel combo is the incorrect one
Difference in clearance from right to left sides . . .
Correct size . . .
Incorrect size . . .
Incorrect rim size (16.5 x 9.75)
Correct rim size (16.5 x 8.25)
All my rims have this type valve with the exception of the rim in question . . .
