it shouldn't be a problem, although the general thinking is the storm prefers 180's...... :thumbup:

You should be able to space the hugger out a wee bit to give you some clearance.

You will need to space the hugger up 15-20 mm at the rear mounts both sides for a 190 tyre .
I've just gone back to a 180 and it's much better turns in better and holds a better line in corners . With the 190 I had to fight to hold the line in the bends it just wanted to stand up on me :-( .
