I have a 2002 honda cbr f4i and I need a new front tire. How do I check...
...which ones i need? Which brand is good? And how do I check what my tire size is as well as rim size?

Go Pirelli, you won't regret it!
On a CBR NEVER replace just one tire, they have to be matched.
The side wall has the size on it, just go with that.
Have a great day!

you couldn't figure this out on your own? look
at your tires that should give you a clue.

theres an arrow on your side wall,and it points to your wear line and if the rest of your tire is flush with that wear line its toast

there is also usually a tag on the swing arm that will tell the manufacturer suggested size for the tires just incase someone has changed them out before and use a different size tire then what should have been used.

run them till they wobble and you can see the cords, then its about time to change them.
lol i rode my last rear tire down to a nice shiny chrome strip down the middle, and not cause im nuts either, i couldnt find a tire in my size! this summer when i get new tires im getting power pilots, 140/70r17, instead of 130/75r17 for the rear, 110/50r17 front. that rear size difference should fit rght?

anytime that you change to a different size tire it is going to effect how the bike handles in the curves. but other then that it should fit with out a problem. my personal preferance is to run what is stock size. its gonna be the best tire for the bike.
