These are the main advantages in using 16.5" over the standard 17" tyres.
Improvement in braking progressivity, which allows later and harder braking into turns. The tyre gives back more �feeling� and is more predictable. This improvement in braking is a direct result of the increased side contact patch inherent in the 16.5� tyre profile.
2. Improvement in stability while on angle and in keeping the desired trajectory entering and exiting corners.
3. Permits entry into higher lean angles more progressively.
4. Provides an improvement in the overall level of handling thanks to its rounder profile. The increase in handling is particularly noticeable during the transition between left/right lean angle changes. PLEASE NOTE these are race tyres for race use only.
