What Rubber?

They are meant to be the tyre to have on Jaaag's! (P6000's that is)

.... and the tyre to avoid on anything else. Awful, awful things frankly, with wet-weather grip (or lack thereof) comparable to Chinese ditchfinders.

This thread has got me thinking. I've always used 195/50 tyres, but the difference in price is only a tenner on those Falkens from Camskill.

 

Would there be any noticable handling benefit moving to the 'right' size?

In theory because the sidewall is less balloned (sp?) over the wheel the tyre should be stiffer under lateral loads

That the theory as I understand it - just wondered if anyone had done it and really noticed the difference.
