I've got a 19inch front rim on my bike. I think I've got bridgestone tires on there. You're right... they're aren't many sizes for that rim, but you can find tires.

I THINK mine is either a 3.5 or 4. And I wanna go to a 4 or 4.5 im pretty sure.. Haven't looked this **** up for a while lol
Whatever will get me a 180-190 tire I want it, mine will only fit 150 properly, and 160 if I want my tire to form to the rim lol
