What are the handling differences between tire sizes:

19 x 5 x 10

16 x 6.5 x 8

I have both sizes now and am curious what is best to run on a MX track.

When racing in deeper rutted tracks, we run the 19 X 5 X 10.
In the hardpack shallow ruts stick with the 16 X 6.5 X 8 for lower center of gravity.
