Tires

Radiant Speed Works carries a focused lineup of motorcycle and truck tires from Shinko, Dunlop and Nitto, picked for riders and drivers who want a known brand at a fair price. You will find cruiser and touring motorcycle tires in front and rear fitments, heavy duty bias ply options, whitewalls for classic bikes and Nitto light truck tires.

Shinko motorcycle tires

The Shinko SR777 is one of the most popular cruiser tires on the road, with a heavy duty construction for big touring bikes and riders who carry a passenger or a load. It comes in blackwall and whitewall, front and rear, in sizes for most American V-twins and metric cruisers. The Shinko Raven 009 is a sport touring radial for riders who want more grip and a longer tread life on a modern bike.

Dunlop

Dunlop tires are original equipment on many touring and cruiser motorcycles, so a Dunlop replacement keeps the handling the bike was designed around. Match the model and size on your current tire to keep that feel.

Nitto truck tires

Nitto builds tires for trucks and performance cars that see real use, from street-focused all terrains to mud terrain tires. They are popular on lifted trucks and SUVs for their looks and their durability.

Choosing the right size

Read the size off your current tire sidewall and match it exactly, including the load and speed rating. On motorcycles, check whether your bike calls for bias ply or radial and never mix the two front to rear unless the bike maker allows it. Front and rear tires on a motorcycle are different constructions, so order them as listed.

Common questions

Is a heavy duty tire worth it on a touring bike? If you ride two-up or carry luggage, yes. A heavy duty casing handles the load and heat better and usually lasts longer.

Can I put a whitewall on a modern bike? As long as the size and construction match what the bike calls for, a whitewall works the same as a blackwall and simply changes the look.

When should I replace a motorcycle tire? Replace it when the tread reaches the wear bars, if it shows cracks or flat spots, or once it is about five years old, even with tread left.
