guys who stretch and fatten the rear tire arent all that concerned with "turning" mostly for show (the wide tire)
240's don't "impact" the turning as bad as the 300+ kits - here's an article from 2WT:

I like the look of the 240 
240 can turn just not as well you can get the arm about stock lenght still i think mabey at least 2 more over. All depends on what your gona do with it. I don't knee drag anymore so im doing it more for the look. but with some handleing still. the 300's are alot flatter so it's harder to corner with them even more so over a 240 and with Diablo comeing out with a sport bike 240 tire handleing with that will be better then a standard cruiser 240 not to mention you get the speed rating also.
Other downside to the 240 is a slight offset wheel the 330 kits can center the wheel.

Wow! Thanks for the link!
No prob bro... I'm actually glad that they did this article. Helped me make up my mind a lot faster

I dont care about pretending im on a track everyday when i ride
so ...............
A fat tire looks good and handles just fine
and yes i can still corner with the best of them.
If you dont believe me
just find someone with a wide tire bike
and see if you can get a ride.
You will find that it is not nearly as dramatic as some of the
naysayers who have never experienced it will have you to believe.
Talkers do just that ....talk.

Put the fat tires on a cruiser where it belongs if you are not drag racing it.

THATS WHAT IM TALKIN ABOUT !
seriously impressive article. i would've thought a stretched kit w/240 woulda made the nimbleness fade off a bit. i know i rode my boys that was 4" out on a 240 and it felt alot diff. maybe it was psychological, but i just didn't feel as comfy in turns as i do with mine.
