Re: Tire Size choices in 12" (available stateside)

this thread is about 12" race tires' not DOt scooter tires for road toads......

Now you want a 10" rain tire......... MC0 SAVA Racing Rain.........

In 12"' you'd have to use the standard race tire or get a tire grooving tool and cut some extra grooves, but then you don't have the super soft compound like a true racing rain tire....... You could groove a Vee Rubber slick....... Vee Rubber claims they are going to have sorted out the 12" slicks and rains at some point for the US market...........

We tested some Gen 1 VR slicks...... one set was so out of round it was crazy, the other sets have no negative issues other than balance. You might find you have to balance the gen 1 VR slicks to stop the bounce.
