Scooterotica

Hi all,

I decided to go tubeless on my T5. I thought fitting the tyre wouldn't be a problem as i work in a car dealership. So i gave them to the lads in the workshop, and we just couldn't get the tyres on. I was trying to fit S83 Michellins. Now i have read that these are horrible to fit to these rims. Now i have one rather chipped wheel. :'( :'(

So can anyone recommend a good quality tyre that goes on without too much hassle?

the schwalbes arnt too much of a problem but you have to use ALOT of grease, in many car garages the machines cant fit tyres to a rim so small but some can

Yup, I've got Scwalbe Racemans, they went on a treat.

My rim with a yoko tyre ha a few marks from fitting as they very stiff the sm100 went on a treat tho dai at on small wheels has the 350/10 yokos at 28 quid each and i think the sm100 is only 27each well worth a phone call if in the market for tyre

I've fitted Schwalbe Raceman tyres to SIP rims, and no problems so far
