195/55/16 vs. 175/60/16
Anyone try both? Seems to me skinnier would be better but would like to know from someone's experience.
I have only tried the 195.

Bobby what didn't you like about the CT?What brand of tire did you try?
The last one I had was the G-Max. For me, it was a little squirmy but to be fair I didn't give it a chance to get dialed in. I wanted to wear out my current MT so I removed the CT and ended up selling it. I would like to try a run flat next time to see if the stiffer sidewalls will calm down the squirminess. I don't know if it's my riding style or what but I need a stiff tire.
I don't know what pressure you were running in the G. Two up and one up 45 seems great to me and I drag the pegs frequently one up. I just put the Alpin on and got a short ride in weekend before last. I'm at 42 and I'm going to 40. Its a little harsh riding at 42. I've been riding the front at 40 also. May end up at 40 for both ends. That runflat is stiff. Sidewall feels three times thicker. It us two plies vs one ply on the G. Weather has been too bad for a good ride.
I never got my Gmax up to 45. I had it at 40. I decided to wait until I wear out my MT to play with it more. I sold it just so it wouldn't sit around and I found a F6B rear wheel this time. The Gmax was on a regular Wing wheel.
I don't remember hearing any feedback from the buyer of my Gmax. He's a member here but doesn't post a lot. I hope it's working out for him.
