the f4i tire size is a 180-55-17. Will a 190-50-17 fit the wheel?

SUPERDAVE

Yea. 100% a 190/50-17 will fit an f4i rim 100%

thats a better percentage than a trojan and they work great

everyone says they work.. i havent gotten the chance to try puttin one yet ( the 190 tire that is)

YES it will work.......

Towlieee

ya 190 fits perfectly fine, its not the 'best' tire because f4i rims aren't made for 190's, but they fit and don't change the profile THAT much (hell its only 10mm)

I even ran a 200mm tire for a while, although I did have to relearn to ride on it

alright cool. I got a takeoff 19- tire but just didnt try puting it on a wheel yet.

the rim size doesnt really matter, you can go up 2-3 tire sizes, what you have to watch for is clearance to your chain. I had a buddy running 180's on his 96 F3, he was mm's from the chain but it fit and never had any issues. Some tires looked retarded because the bead was really sucked in towards center so the tire looked like a mushroom. F3's had 160's didnt they? or was it a 170? I think they were 160.......

YO IVE RUN 190'S A BUNCH OF TIMES IT H=JUST MAKES MY CIRCLES SLOWER DOESNT WANNA DIP IN AS FAST.

i go back and forth depending on what people give me 190 or 180. i know there is a pressure thread but what about tire pressure guys. mine is around 18 to 20. just wonder mostly what the pros and killer riders run so i can start working on running more pressure.

I'm happy with the 180 for now, i've heard of people going down to 160-170 for circles, I guess it depends on your riding style/preference. I would imagine that you can compensate with adding more air to the 190 to make it dip quicker... no?
