One of the basic problems is finding a rear. 1.85" is a narrow rim for the rear, and there's very little available in the stock 3.50-18 and the alternate 100/90-18. Can a 110/80 substitute on the rear? That's not clear; that size is rather wide for a 1.85", the normal minimum being 2.15" for a 110/80. I have included rears of that size for reference, pending further information -- they may not fit well.
