    For 110/80-18, PSD is a good option. For 110/90-18 MRF ZapperQ. Sorry I don't have ready specs at hand for 110 profile tires in 17 inches.

        Yes Divya, The RTR 160 comes with 18 inchers while the 180 comes with 17.
        For the 18 inches the PSD and Zapper Q are better options and for the RTR 180 if you are ok with upsize then Zapper Vyde with 120/80-17 is very good.

            Thanks for the reply. Actually I know zapper C comes in tubeless. But Im thinking of dual purpose tires which are tubeless.

            Mrf meteor.
            Ceat vertigo (would be my best bet but again tube type!)
            If I were you I would gonwith these. Tubeless no idea

            divyansh....
            Then it seems dual purpose tires dont come in tubeless version.

            Is Zapper Q or Zapper C better? Seeing the tread design I felt Zapper C will be better in wet conditions. In 2 months when monsoon comes I want to finalize on a tire that will be good both in wet & dry conditions.

            @All
            BTW I still cant understand why dual purpose tires dont come in tubeless. The problem is the tire dealers are so dumb that they will say even though its tubetype you can still use as Tubeless. For them its marketing. So before paying a visit to them I need to get a clear picture of what all models are really Tubeless so that I dont get cheated.
            Has any body here tried dual purpose tubeless tires?
            What exactly are the stock tires of Hero Impulse? I feel they should be dual purpose ones. Any idea on the brand & tire size spec and how good it is?

              Zapper C are neither too good nor too bad, i would rate them nominal everyday usage kind of tyres. The Zapper Q i have only experienced in ZMA on dry seasons and nominal wet patches, have not experienced it in full wet conditions so cant comment on its wet capability. However on the dry i felt the Zapper Q was better than Zapper C

                If its a tubeless tyre it would be written tubeless on the tyre wall.

                I have used zapper q and zapper c. Zapper c lasts longer than than q. Q is the best

                  Re: Tyres

                  Guys, need your help here. I'm looking for MRF Zapper FV tyre 2.75x18 for upcoming restoration of my beloved Zeus. I tried Chennai and Pondy, the tyre is not available jot only in the shop/showroom but even in their godown.
                  I'm confident that somewhere away from Chennai could be lying, but without you help its not even half my effort. The tyre is slightly unique as it got a rib pattern and cross pattern at the either ends for good grip while taking corners. It's easy to identify as it got thin white marking on the tyre wall. Thanks.

                            Thailand make michelin pilot sporty tyres in 110/17 are available in most places still... check with dealers they have old and new stocks and most grey market imports.....
                            Dont go fully by what the website states.
                            Dealers have a lot of tyres that are not their on the indian website some times and are imports

                                Hi All,
                                Recently learnt that TVS manufactures Michelin tyres in India. So would it be good idea to still get Michelin Sirac Street for HH Hunk(Rear Tyre 100/90*18) or better go with MRF zappers. Which would be a better option in MRF, Zapper Q or Zapper Y or Zapper C or Mogrip tyres. Looking forward for zapper Q, but just want to know how good they are against punctures.?

                                Also will 110/90*18 Zapper Q(easily available than 100/90*18) be a direct fit on Hunk or it needs some modifications?

                                Thanks in advance.

                                Regards,
                                Ashwhin.
