Shinko – SR428 Tire (Front/Rear)

Overview

With its versatile tread pattern, the 428 makes an ideal OEM replacement.

Key Features

• 4 ply rated nylon carcass
• Sizes to fit the TW200 & Grom
• DOT approved

Why We Like It

• The bias-ply carcass soaks up surface imperfections better than a radial, and it is a large part of why this tire costs what it does.
• DOT approved, which means it is street legal not a closed-course tire you have to trailer to.
• Top speed rating in this range is J (62 mph), so the rating is not the limiting factor on most bikes it fits.

Why You’d Like It

• You ride off-road and want traction you can feel on loose and broken ground.
• It fits 12-inch wheels.
• These are tube-type, so plan on a fresh tube (and a rim lock if you are running low pressure).
• The same tire works front or rear, which keeps spares simple if you run a matched set.
• Pricing runs $66.26 to $69.66 depending on size.
