Rob Brooklyn,  NY There's really no other scooter tire to use I've used them all. Some are grippier, but not by much, and those last 1/2 as long. These have a great tread life, grip in rain or dry, little to no flex and are totally predictable. I've raced vintage scooters on these and use them for our everyday rides. I don't see why anyone would use anything else.

Sean Los Angeles,  CA Michelin S1 Michelin S1s are my favorite scooter tire. Great product! I've been running S1s for the last 10 years. The tires are great in most city conditions, even track use. The tire wear far better than many others. The fit and finish of the tires is always excellent. If you want a sporty tire for your scooter, these ones are worth every penny. The only downside to the tires is wet weather and sandy roads, tires loss grip in those conditions if pushed...but what motorcycle tire doesn't. I hope Michelin continues to make this fine product many more years.

Brian Bakersfield,  CA Excellent Tires These tires not only look great but run quick and smooth. They grip the ground like motorcycle racing tires. The one issue that one has to get used to is the balance and centering coming from another brand. At lower or slowing speeds you have to watch your balance as the tires are more round than flat so you wobble a bit or jump to one side or the other.

Jeff Centreville,  VA Excellent tire I've had these on my Vino 50 for 1 year/1500 miles. They are superior to the stock tires in every possible way: wear, dry traction, wet traction and even appearance. I would recommend these for any Vino owner, even if the stock tires are brand new. There is a world of difference. Due to the durability of the tire break-in took a little longer than the literature indicated (about 400-500 miles).

David Lompoc,  CA Best Buy for your Scooter I have searched and found that this is the best buy tire that I have found online. Considering I have split rims, I found the installation very easy. I have a '78 P-200 series, and would recommend these tires for your scooter. The handling is quite a bit better than the generic brand I use to have, and will purchase them again, when needed.

Andrew Goossen Pryor,  OK Excellant Tire I bought these as a replacement for OEM tires on a Genuine Buddy 125. The ride had improved and the cornering has greatly improved. In rain and on wet streets the tire performs a lot better than stock. Smooth and vibration free from start to 65MPH with no balancing needed. Definitely will purchase again.

kirk partney fayetteville,  NC No Problems For the money, I believe you'd be hard-pressed to find a better tire. No vibration, corners well.

Keith Cummings Durham,  NC Nice tire, but beware of the Vibrations The tread on these tires cause a vibration between 15 and 20 mph. It isn't a huge deal, but I never had this problem with tires that had smooth contact surfaces. I have about 150 miles on the tires right now and the vibration has abated to some extent, but it is still noticeable. If I were to do it again, I would select a tire with only side-tread.

Mike Sandy,  DE S1 Tires I bought these tires to replace my stock Yamaha Vino tires and they are a huge improvement over the stock tires! They perform more like a motorcycle tire with a better ride height and better cornering. I would recommend purchasing these especially for the price.
