Can I put a 17 inch tire on a 16 inch rim?
This should be obvious, but since it’s not, the answer is no. A 17” tire means the hole in the middle where the wheel fits is exactly 17” across. A 16” wheel means the diameter of the wheel, which sits inside the hole in the tire, is exactly 16”. That means the wheel will fall right through the tire.

What kind of tire do you use on a triumph?
Using the 1985 Roy Bacon book “Triumph Twin Restoration” as my guide, a 3.25 x 18 or 19 front tire was used about 95%+ of the time on all Triumphs. In a couple of cases for certain models a 3.50 x 19 was specified as was a 3.00 x 19 and 20, and a 3.25 x 17. Other than a couple of oddball cases way back a 4.00 x 18 was used on the rear.

Are there different tire sizes for Triumph T120?

The book also gives the US variations in specs and the wheels and tires were not changed. For what it’s worth. AJ, those tires were narrow, especially by today’s standards.
Is the front tire too narrow on a triumph?
I know for sure the rear is too narrow since it’s a 4.00 – 18 and the bike should have a 4.25 – 18. On the front, it has a 110/90 – 19 and the bike should have a 4.10 – 19. So if a 110/90 is equal to a 4.00, then the front tire is also too narrow.
