We present the mass distribution of a sample of 121 nearby galaxies with highquality optical velocity fields and available infra-red $\it{WISE}$ 3.4 $\mu$mdata. Contrary to previous studies, this sample covers all morphological typesand is not biased toward late-type galaxies. These galaxies are part of theFabry-Perot kinematical $\it{GHASP}$ survey of spirals and irregular nearbygalaxies. Combining the kinematical data to the $\it{WISE}$ surface brightnessdata probing the emission from the old stellar population, we derive massmodels allowing us to compare the luminous to the dark matter halo massdistribution in the optical regions of those galaxies. Dark matter (DM) modelsare constructed using the isothermal core profile and the Navarro-Frenk-Whitecuspy profile. We allow the M/L of the baryonic disc to vary or we keep itfixed, constrained by stellar evolutionary models (WISE W$_1$-W$_2$ color) andwe carry out best fit (BFM) and pseudo-isothermal maximum disc (MDM) models. Wefound that the MDM provides M/L values four times higher than the BFM,suggesting that disc components, on average, tend to be maximal. The mainresults are: (i) the rotation curves of most galaxies are better fitted withcore rather than cuspy profiles; (ii) the relation between the parameters ofthe DM and of the luminous matter components mostly depends on morphologicaltypes. More precisely, the distribution of the DM inside galaxies depends onwhether or not the galaxy has a bulge.
