meant to specify that... it's old so didn't know if finding tires (or tube tires in general) would be a bit difficult.

i have a Honda CB350K3

take the wheel off and take it in to them, you can order the tire online a lot cheaper, and save labor and down time by taking it off yourself, you would only have to pay labor to mount and balance it. barnett suzuki is the only one i know of around here, i usually take mine to my dad's shop and do it myself.

the honda place in garner. They are cheaper than anyone else. If its an odd size it might take a day or two to get it in.

i got my tires online.
i took my two wheels and two tires to the honda dealer on old wake forest and they mounted and balanced for about $20 total. i didn't have any cash, so they had to make a work order to take my card, but if you brought cash, it'd be between you and the worker basically and they'd charge you a little less.

just go up there and ask them if it's ok to bring in a couple tires and wheels before you do it.

cycle gear in garner got mitchelin pilots and dunlop 208's on sale.. i picked up front mitchelin pilot radials (tubeless) front tire for around $70 + $15 installation i beleive if you bring them the wheel. i think rears went for around $100. dunlops are around 60-70 front and 80 rear. they took about an hour to install it, which is kinda long considering they have four or five people running the store all the time, but at least i didnt have to wait for shipping and deal with all that bullshit.
