The tires have been found to wear very well considering their size and the weight they are being asked to carry. A good rule of thumb is about 1500 to 2000 miles with normal use (we do get reports from commuters of way over 3000 miles used on a daily basis). These are the famous "S" style tread pattern that is designed for street use. If you want to wear out a tire quicker or you don't want to squeeze every watt into rolling your scooter along versus overcoming rolling resistance just don't inflate to the recommended 50 PSI which is higher than the run of the mill tires that can only handle 35 PSI, our tires translate into lower rolling resistance and a longer ride on a charge. Some of the kids can go through a tire in less than 100 miles by showing off, skidding, hard braking and doing what kids do best. To save your knuckles and patience we have a package that includes the tire, tube and rim with sealed bearings at a good price break compared to adding the parts individually (es7070172). If you are on the road this is a good spare to have. If your little angel (or you) hops curbs and does jumps (none of which are covered by any warranty or recommended) you may want to get this package. If they did the damage take the money out of their allowance, if you did the damage, then what? |
