Tyre Sizes

Just thought I'd pass on a bit of information that I recently aquired!
I was chatting to a guy from Dunlop a couple of days ago & I asked about the benefits of changing from a 190 to 180 or vice versa. His reply was interesting!
He was adamant that people would be VERY unwise to change from the manufacturers specification. He warned that fitting an "Incorrect" tyre size would alter the intended profile of the tyre. Also, by changing from a 190 to a 180 you are in danger of riding off the edge of the tyre way before you would expect to be at maximum lean.
Just a thought for you all...
Any thoughts/comments?
