About this item

• Sure! Here’s a rephrased version of each section while maintaining the original meaning:
• **Compatible Models:** These 8.5x2.0 inch solid tires are suitable for a range of scooters, including Gotrax GXL V2, XR, XR Ultra, G3, Hiboy S2, Hover-1 Journey, Journey 2.0, Journey Max, Swagtron SG-5, isinwheel S9 Pro, and VOLPAM models SP06, SPT7, SP03. They also fit NAVIC T5 and T5 Pro, Wheelspeed Primer, Atomi E20, MAXSHOT V1, Greevego DY01, Smart A6L, SISIGAD models B15 and B17, TurboAnt M10 Lite electric scooters, among others. If your scooter originally uses tires sized 8.5x2.0, 8.5x2.125, 50/75-6.1, or 8 1/2x2, our tires will be a perfect match.
• **Replaceable 10 Inch Tire:** This 8.5x2.0 solid tire can serve as a replacement for original 10x2, 10x2.125, and 10x2/54-152 tires. It features a slightly narrower tread than those sizes and has a thinner profile. Nonetheless, it remains compatible with the 10x2.0 and 10x2.125 specifications. For instance, it works with Ninebot models F25, F40, D18W, D38E, D28E, D18E, F65I, F25I, Gotrax G4, and various other 10-inch scooters.
• **Size Clarification:** It's important to understand that the inner diameter of solid tires is typically smaller than the outer diameter of the rim, ensuring that the tire stays securely on the rim. If you have concerns about selecting the correct size, rest assured that this design is intentional. Before installation, the tire should be softened to allow for easier fitting over the rim. This tire has an inner diameter of 15 cm, fitting rims with an approximate outer diameter of 6.65 inches and a groove width around 1.33 inches.
• **Puncture-Resistant Solid Tire:** The 8.5x2.0 inch solid tire is designed to be maintenance-free and does not require inflation or an inner tube. Many scooter users report that with inflatable tires, they often find themselves changing tires frequently—sometimes as often as every two weeks. In contrast, solid tires significantly reduce the need for frequent replacements, allowing for up to six months of use without needing a change. Even if the tire encounters sharp objects, it will not puncture.
• **Non-Skid & Shock-Absorbing Features:** This semi-solid tire is lighter than fully solid variants, leading to decreased power consumption for your scooter. The honeycomb design aids in heat dissipation and effectively absorbs vibrations, providing a smoother ride. Its high-quality, abrasion-resistant rubber surface features a textured grip that performs excellently across different terrains and adverse weather conditions, ensuring reliable traction even in wet conditions.
• **Installation Tips:** Solid tires are generally stiffer compared to pneumatic options. To facilitate installation, immerse the tire in boiling water for 15-20 minutes to make it more pliable. This softening process allows for easier handling. Installation does require some force, so it's advisable to have at least two people involved or to seek help from a professional bike repair shop.
