I was wondering if anyone knew the widest rear tire that could be used on the M. Also any suggestions on brand would be helpful as well.

one thing to note kbsnow. the avon 200mm rear DOES NOT fit the M50. it rubs where the tread meets the sidewall on the drive shaft. i know from costly experience....
