The sizes don’t mean anything. They are just an identifier, not a measurement. So phrases like “it’s rly a 190 and my bike likes 190s” are meaningless. We have no idea what the actual dimensions of the original 190/55 were, and I’d bet they were not close to either slick dimensions. I’d also bet the original setup was in no way optimized for the original tire size for track use.
Pick a tire, stick with it, and work on optimizing everything for it. If I were u, I’d absolutely pick the 200 over the 180 for a literbike. If the 180 was unequivocally faster, Pirelli wouldn’t make the 200 and run it for the pro series.
