The PM wheel is 1/2 inch wider than the stock rear wheel.   Rotchcrocket51 Posted on Monday, March 17, 2008 - 08:53 pm:        The first time I ran a 180 rear on my 1999 M-2, it was in preparation for a trackday that weekend. When I was going through the pit after a session, someone came running over and said my bike was making a weird noise. A rock had stuck to the tire and was dragging on the inner fender every time the wheel turned. So now, if I run a 180, I remove the inner fender.   Themalks Posted on Friday, May 16, 2008 - 01:59 pm:        I run a 190 on mine but had to remove the rear tire fender. It's great for long rides, but not good for taking corners.
