Re: Best Tire Size

180 is better, u have 5.5 inch rim made for 180's, 190's are made for 6 inch rims found on liter bikes, the tire wont contour right if its on the wrong size rim, unless its free i would put the right size on.

Re: Best Tire Size

i run whatever i get for free, 180s and 190s. I cant tell any difference in circles. One thing i have noticed is that the 190s seem to track out faster than 180s do.
