Steering Tire...

Sidecar Front Tires

I've been riding rigs with Block Ks on the front since 1985. My current rig, a 1987 K100LT, has a Hannigan sidecar, after-market leading link forks, and, like yours, an automotive rear tire. In my opinion, the front forks have more effect on handling than the type of front tire.
 
I'm running a metzler 880 bias ply on the front. Handles great on the heavy K, over 5k mile and just 2/32 wear form new. 38psi.
 
From a 110 to a 130 on front... Big ol' fattie...
