Not to argue, but I just got a dunlop 555 170/80 and its not wider than
the 150, but it does feel better thru the corners,  the 880 is 186.00
thru the local dealer, and 108.00 thru maw, but maw is on back order
till well thru October, needless to say I didn't go for the 880 local, I
went with the 170/80 via Yamaha and its not 'wider' than the 150, the
tread pattern is bigger, but not the path.
