I have a 200 on mine. Can't tell the diff. really, but my 200 doesn't look as wide as some 190's.

The 200 on my friends 954 looks a LOT wider than my 190/55 on my TL. 190/55 > 190/50.

He hits the edges prettty easily with his.

What Tire is he running?
I think some manufacturers tires are wider than others.

So just to clarify things - the 190/55 Michelin Pilot Road II would be the best of both worlds - looks wide like a 200 and still has comfortability, handling, and fit. That's what I want!
