do you know the change in outter diameter? if so I could quickly tell you the spped change ratio
if I have worked it out right then its for a 180/55 17 profile tyre the outter diameter should be:
(180x.55) x 2 = 198 + (17x25.4) = 629.8mm dia
the final hieght is determined by the 2 numbers 180/55 as it is the ratio of height to the width of each profile
while a 180/50 17 tyre would give the final outter diameter of :
(180x.5) x 2 = 180 + (17x25.4) = 611.8
this means that if speed is set right for 180/55 then the 180/50 profile would be about 3% less in speed as each rotation is about 3% less in circumference which is 3% less movement forward
