im getting an 18" x 5.5" sportmax rim:eusa_dance:
the tires im thinking about getting are metzeler ME 880 tires but the rear tire is a V rated and the front is H rated.
im thinking a 180/55ZR18 rear and a 110/90H18 front
that's the best combo i can find
my question is
with 2 different speed rateings is it going to affect the handleing of my bike?

and is there any other brands of tires i should look into?
 
If you are going to put radials on the bike (which you would want to do) you may want to check out 100/90/18's and then also 120/70/18's.

Wonder what kind of deal John is making you on the wheel? I sell the same RC Comp wheels.

You can get a Metz Z6 in the 120. It's V rated.

If you haven't bought the wheel yet, price it through Sean...
