Kami: This thread has always been a sticky
Cruiser: The stock tires are in the lineup. They are the Kenda K761's.
Timber: Don't ever ride the Boppers in loose snow. The stock tires are fun to ride around on in any winter conditions but Boppers are down right annoying and dangerous. Last winter with the stockers I used to do doughnuts in the parking lots at like 30kms and just use my feet as braces. This winter I can barely keep it upright at 5mph in a straight line....it's pretty rediculous.

Wasn't sure. Usually people throw a sticky in front of the subject line.

Well it's up but for some reason the 'glow' on the manufacturers names isn't working so it's a bit harder to read. Hopefully I can get this fixed soon.

Here's my review of my DURO hf910 aka. DUNLOP K960
Looks: A+
Rolling Resistance: C
Cornering: C
Offroad: A +
Durability: A
i've had em for a year, look wise they are bad "edit profanity", everybody looks and asks what i'm driving , says it look s like an offroader.
I don't corner that fast and the acceleration and top speed have suffered about 2-4 km an hour i'm assuming. I get beat by a stocker of the hop racing (even though i have a variator, rollers after market filter and cdi) but top end I smoke em.
off road wise they are the "edit profanity", i use it camping and even on the beach once or twice , they are tough as toenails tread hasnt worn out at all and they are ginormous potholes in my city from the jacked up weather and o go over bumps, hills, mud, whatever.
peace

I have yet to run across white wall tires that are big enough to fit the Ruckus. My whitewalls come in 90/90-10 sizing like for the Metro. I have seen people painting the letters on their tires white (ie. Doctavious) via a special marker but that's it. I can't really Robo's ride having them by maybe...be sure to post if you can find anything out.

Tough question, I don't like buying tires online because the shipping is usually crazy. The cheapest way I was able to send 2 tires to a guy in the USA was over $70 from Canada via UPS.
Your local shop should be able to get pretty much all of these and I'd say that's probably your best bet but if you do want to buy them online I'd just google the tires and brand and see what comes up.

I added an MRP tire but I'm not 100% on it's name. You can get them from MiamiMoto.com for about $35 each.

I'm happy with the tread pattern of the Innova This is what I thought I ordered.  This is what I got   I'v ordered a rear now also ; hope it comes in the knobby tread. Should be a good all around tire. |

Those are so COOL! They match your Ruck perfectly. I always thought colored tires would just show dirt better but those are camo so they should look great even with a little dirt on them. |

A little narrow, but the tread you got definately looks better than the tread in the picture. I hope they ride well.

Cruising down the beach (South Beach) seems a lot more fun here in south Florida
