It depends on what wheels you're running. On standard wheels most people run 160's, but some people have run the 165 Dunlop slicks to good effect. Even with the 160's you may still not run to the edge

Hey dude,
I have a 5.5 ZX6R rear rims in mine, run full size 180 section Metzeler slicks
Don't know if that is legal for your UK class rules tho
