I know this is both counter-intuitive and unpopular opinion when it comes to the real wheel but,
Has anyone ever ran 130's at the rear?
I know most will say "you should stick to OEM 140 spec" but there seems to be lots of people running different sizes at the rear with no real issues(albeit wider, not thinner)
This is a GREAT tire I have used with success in the past, but unfortunately the widest they are made for 18" wheels is 130

This is particularly tempting at this price point, but the thought/science behind running a thinner-than-OEM rear wheel is beyond me at this moment, hence I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts on this...
