Because this is an ongoing issue, I wanted to snap the chalk line—16” Shinkos appear available again, right now, and as in the past most likely for a limited time, so now is our chance. Search for Shinko SR880 and SR881. Following is a US link, and my quick www search revealed several more sources:

16” Tires Available Now
Re: 16” Tires Available Now
I just got a 130/60-16 front from Summit Racing. Has a 2024 date code on it so not too aged. I also have a 160/60-16 rear on the way to my local Cycle Gear shop. I did have to scratch around to find these so current inventory probably dwindling.
