Not understanding why you want Enduro tyres on a non-enduro bike. Why do you need something with a 80 wall???

Why do you need something with a 80 wall???It's definitely not a "need", and I'd prefer if I could get a 90 wall, but I'm looking at enduro tires for entirely cosmetic reasons. I like the look of the tread pattern. I may change my mind between now and purchase time, but for now really hoping for the enduro tire look. If anyone has suggestions for a better tire that still has quite an aggressive look (but no big nobblies please!), happy to hear 'em!
Must admit that tyre choice on appearance alone is not the best or safest idea. Semi off road type tyres don't have as much contact area with the road, which is certainly not a good plan, they can be noisy, and wear very quickly, plus as Lobo said, you really need to watch the speed rating, bearing in mind that if you choose say an H rated tyre of the tubeless type, which is what your 550 woulf need, by using a tube you effectively reduce the speed rating to S, which is only 93mph max, and not suitable for your bike. Whatever you decide to use, be careful, a blow out on a bike at any speed can be very seriousSent from my GT-S5839i using Tapatalk 2
