i have a couple 190's layin around with good tread on em... any disadvantages to running them on a rim ment for a 180?

i know its possible cuase ive done it before but not before i could do circles. does it change how they feel?

stock05

Scott-

Just Run A Liitle More Air Pressure Should Be Good

not much i can do the same with 180 or 190

danherz

+1 youll be fine, i run 170s 180s and 190s on my bike its all the same

Running a 190 on my F4i, I can lean the bike over further on circles and it gives me more grip, but for straight line stuff it'll give me more of a wobble. Makes sense because if you look at the cross-section of the rim and tire, running a 190 series will give you more an edged tip to run on rather than a rounded flat surface. Basically, you're squishing a fatter tire on the same size (width wise) rim making the tire pancake giving you a triangle shaped tip to ride on.

Borne

But as he said, anything will do.

ahahahhaha nick...so tell us can u do circles now? dont hold back

f4stunna

i know your jelious son, but i really did want to know cause i have some really good 190's and my tire now is cooked

Darius

definatly not true man, the f4i rim is 5.5 vs a litre bike has a 6 inch rim, my Pvm rear rim for my f4i is 6 inches wide. What it does is pull the tire out wider and give you a wider contact while going straight. If you run a 190 on a 5.5 the tire is going to be more peaky than if it was on a 6.0. I like the 180 on the 6.0 rim. Just kinda sucks once it gets worn out because it's harder to lean it into the circle but goes straight really easy. Oh and I always run the same tire, same pressure all the time. Keeps your riding more consistent

f4stunna

the problem with that is i go around trying to find free take offs... i dont have the cash to go buy new qualifiers everytime i need a tire.

skrewd21

i'm with ya on that

ExoticRyder

$ROSS$

What exactly do u run? brand and pressure if you dont mind. Have been stuck on the bridgestone for a while.Whats better? Been slipping a little in faster O's

Z-UNIT

f4stunna will tell u .....give it a day or 2 there wll be another thread

f4stunna

no doubt... im gonna try podiums tomarrow, ill let ya know how it goes

Z-UNIT

just make a thread now...u dont wanna forget title it sumthing like...."need dirtbar info"

"is it ok to run thesee bars when im doing podium circles which i learned in 30 secs today by accident i just did em...but uh can i run fat bars? or will it mess up these circles i can do"

jowalskiMO

you can only run the fat bars if they are fat lik zuchini's and you nail fat chicks with them while pulling your foot over into podium. however this can be bypassed if you knock the popcorn out of ONE young unsuspecting man's hand. anymore than that and its mousetrap for sure

crtchrktrcr

mark does a lot of drugs... he can also do circles, he can even do circles while on drugs

Darius

dunlop 209 qualifiers, 25psi to start and up it to 30 once it gets worn out a bit.
