a 190 on a 5.5 rim will give greater contact patch at maximum lean, thats why the supersport guys use them. It makes an egg shape because its squeezed on to a smaller rim, less stability in a straight line but a larger contact patch at full lean. useless on the road however as it helps the bike drop on its side quicker making it feel unstable at lesser angles of lean.
