List of replacement tires

Post by Streetglow »

I've been shopping around for tires and I put together a short list of what is
available for sprees. The OEM size for spree tires is 2.50-10

Cheng Shin
C800 OEM Replacement (also sold at scooter therapy) $9.64
C917 $9.46


Kenda
K313 - General Replacement Tire $14.03
K329 - Touring Tire $14.91

K329's available at CycleGear via special order, cost me $14.95 each + $2 shipping, best deal of all.


IRC
They make some sort of 2.50-10 tire, don't know the details.

Can you fit 2.75 X10?

I 've used Bridgestone hoops and IRC 510s in that size on my Aero.
Both cost about $22 at American Tire online. I paid to have them mounted so $12 on the tire extra isn't much difference and both those tires work better - both handling and ride. I have IRC 510s now and they made more of a difference than any other add so far.

Also check your brakes when you pull the tires as its the same step as wells a lubing the wheel bearings. On my Aero you need to pull the muffler for the rear so its a good time to decarbon it too.

updated my first post. I just picked up some K329's special order through CycleGear since they are listed as a reseller of Kenda products. Cost me $14.95 a tire (list price) and $2 shipping, should be here in roughly 3 days.
