    Why? The rim is made to take one OR the other, NOT EITHER.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    I think it's yamaha giving suzuki a good badgering, indicating either suzuki is for girls, or their both gay, probably that they're both gay...

    180 and 190 have different profiles. 180 goes on a 5.5" rim and 190 on a 6" rim.
    If you mismatch tyre/rim all that will happen is that the tyre will 'adjust' it's profile to suit - and a 180 on a 6" (because it will flatten out) will reach it's edge sooner than a 190 would, whereas a 190 on a 5.5" is never likely to get far enough over to reach it's edge.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    and if that was indeed the case then it's very rude of mr yamahaha to not be a gentleman and make with a reach around.

    i'd also suspect the use of motormacyle rohypnol....

    180's make turn in easier.
    190's have better side grip.
    Muscle can overcome the slower turn in of the 190, nothing will get you extra side grip from a 180.
    If you can use the extra side grip the 190 offers and lap times are of great importance to you, then go for the 190.
    All this only applies if you have a 6 inch rim...if you have a 5.5, you are wasting your time with a 190.
