180 tyre - redman - 14-07-12
Has anybody fitted a 180 tyre on the rear and had any success any fit or handling issues as I can get track scrubs cheap but not in a 160 width.... :'(

I'm sure there was months of testing with results that ended with correct tyre fittings that were best for the bike?

my fzs600 came with a180 rear tyre and it handles like a dream but i dont know any other on this bike,when they need changing im getting 160 back on it tho as like already said the bike will have been tested for these (and i can get 160 scrub tyres free!)

hi lee id change back to the 160 when mine are worn mainly because i can get 160s free! my mate races in f400(on fzr400)and his tyres only do one race weekend before there no good to him! there pirelli super corsa pro soft front medium rear,i get them for nowt cos i help him doing jobs etc but i know he sells them time to time on ebay so keep an eye on there as theres always someone selling them
