There's a question of how that affects the seating of the bead by running wider tires on a narrower rim... Normally, if you go with a wider tire, the handling becomes dull and the bike fights you more turning in... However, the profile is altered when you put a wider tire on a narrower rim, so it can actually quicken the turning... Take all this with a grain of salt, I don't have any personal experience here... just what I've read.

That said, the engineers put a 160 on there for a reason... I'd probably just get a 160 and be done with it.
