RadRover5 tire swap,
From: factory Kenda Juggernauts 26 x 4.0
To: Vee Tire 26x3.5 Speedster Fat Tire 90-559 Folding Bead Silica Compound 120 TPI
INSTALL & OPINION.
To say I am happy would be an understatement, I am ecstatic. These tires are freaking perfect, virtually ZERO noise, silky smooth handling, pleasant cornering & and they ROLL. 30 psi is just right.
Install was a breeze, took less than an hour. Old Kenda Juggernaut tires came off easily new ones went on with no problems either. I would rate this a 4 on a 10 scale in difficulty.
Turns this bike into a Cadillac! A total Sedan DeVille.
No durability info yet but I foresee no problems there. I hear they wear like tank treads.
i just put these on my rad rover 6 plus a couple days ago as well. its like night and day. i use so much less battery and accelerate so much faster.
Where you get the tires from? I may get them when my tires wear out.

I've been looking for the Vee Chicane's with skinwalls, but alas, no luck, so i may "settle" for these...
Not available in my location.
Would they be as good as the kendas for off road use?
I was looking at these that are available from Amazon over here, anyone have an opinion of them?

a month later, how are you digging the tires?
Any experience with them on gravel and or off-pavement?
Still loving the Speedster?s. They really have increased the enjoyment I get from my Rover, big time.
