to anyone with a 190 rear If you dont already have the 190/55 vs the 50 your missing out! Big time! That extra turn in is great!

The 50 vs. 55 is a common swap. Not as drastic as 190 to 180 but that can be done too. Just depends what you need from your bike.

I need 60 degree lean angle at 150mph.

Yeah right.

the profile of a 190 shits on the 180... Been there also. Go with the 190/55 if your looking for win win. No need to rob the contact patch at highway angles. 190 will last and has the same or better profile.

Here we are debating the subtle nuances of which tire size works best with our chassis/suspension and the majority of guys I see riding on the street don't even know which pressures to run...

They don't even seem to mind other than they are black and round...
