haha sorry. i just dont think i explained wat i ment very well!!!
i was on the same line as you as regard the difference between a 190/50 profile vs 190/55 profile but wat i was trying to say was 180/55 should have the same handleing characteristics as a 190/55 as they are both 55% tall as they are wide. i dont know if this makes anymore sence???? lololol

Here's the beast, you can see the high arse.I thought it handled pretty well.
ZZZZZZZZZZ
Keep in mind that tyres may vary substantially between models and manufacturers.
As an example, an Avon VP2 Sport/SS 190/55 (180mm) is narrower than the VP2 180/55 (181mm), yet has a larger diameter.

Bike tyres - they fuck with your head. You spend ages deciding what brand, style to fit, agonize over the horrendous price and hope they live up to your expectations.
Car tyres - you go to Tonys or similar and haggle over the price of a set of hoops and get 4 of them for 3/4 the price of 2 bike tyres and the car ones will last 30 -50,000 kms! Plus the car tyres can lose 30% of their air and not spit you off the road!

Can't make it tomorrow, got my two girls with me until lunchtime, then I'm off to pick up some new toys for the bike that are waiting for me at the courier depot.
I thought so, but I've heard of others paying similar money so maybe Michelin are pushing them currently.
Lol. Yeah was blown away by the price.

Shit Dude. Where did you get a deal like that? I just fitted 2 of the same and i paid way more than that for them. BUGGER! Mine was the big rear one too.
Actually they were Pilot Road 2's but all the same....
Trumpydom!

Indeed it is a very special price compared to what I paid and I thought what i paid wasn't toooo bad.. For the set I bought with a 190/50 rear it was $570 + fitting! That was the cheapest set of tyre I had bought in a long time so I thought I was doing alright.
