Have you ever ridden a bike with a 250 or 280 tire. Fun to look at, but who wants to wrestle the bike all the time just to make a turn, or go around a curve. Wide tire bikes want to go straight. It get really interesting when there is any Debris or moisture on the road when you force the bike to lean over. It will kick out from underneath you. Ultra wide tires are fine on Show Bikes, and Drag bikes. But if you actually ride your bike, keep tire width safe and sensible. Maybe the FMCR GYSGT. can go into more detail. I have read several of his comments, and he can put the facts into clear understandable language. Semper Fi.
