Why did you go for the 160 over the 150?

excellent road tyre mate, grip is very good...as i dont go for track so can't comment about it warm up time..
i like the multi-layer compound concept, which proven to be stable and durable...balance for cornering and touring..

i do feel 160 on rear tyre have better stability than 150 but with slightly more weight.

Question :

doesn't the shape of the 160 tire change when fitted on the rim which was meant for a 150 tire ?

I use the Bridgestone BT003 RS 150/60-17 and it's performance is great ...

i've just had bt 016's fitted with a 160/60 18 on the rear. the tyres are excellent. stick like hell and warm up really quick. haven't had any worries bout cornering since. love them

160/60 18 BT016 - utterly splendid tyres!
