http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...DME:L:RTQ:UK:1


18.25 inch wheels ?

so I asked:

are these not 17" wheels please ? should be marked on tyres, thanks

his reply:

Nope they are standard size for duke's which is 18.1/4 inch.
cheers steve

So the Question is : What is this all about then ? 18.1/4 inch wheels ??? where do you get tyres for them then ???
