Like Monkey says, Hoonda knows what works!

A bigger tyre squeezed on to the NSR rims can actually have a smaller "footprint", and consequently less grip, than the correct size tyre.

Stock fitment is 110/70x17 and 150/60x17, and I wouldn't personally ever change that, it simply works too well.

The exception to the rule is if you fit slicks. Apparently there isn't an equivellant size to the 110/150 in a slick, they are slighly wider, but if you are at the level where you are allowed to use/can exploit the use of slicks, then you'll probably be racing an RS anyway!
