[QUOTE="Oldman125, post: 1301676, member: 70686"] You're on the right track (no pun!) The 19" on modern MXers has less sidewall flex and a wider foot print, keeping the knobs in better contact with the ground and allowing less slide in modern MX/SX riding styles. The 18" works well off road as it does have more bump absorption. They can ride through rocks or over roots better than the 19s with a narrower foot print. Relate it to the 14 inch rims on a passenger car vs. 19s on a road racing style car. [/QUOTE]
