  • Simplified is a new series on PowerDrift that aims to make automotive concepts, technology and ideas as easy to understand as possible. These short videos take the questions you have and clear the air around the what, how, why and when. And this time, we're talking about the sidewall of your tyre which has enough text on it to make a court filing look brief. What do those numbers on your tyre mean? Shumi finds out.

    Would like you to provide info related to tyres when it comes to Indian bikes. Pirellis and Michelins are mostly used on superbikes and rarely on Indian bikes. Most of us folks would be riding something like a Bullet or a Dominar or a Pulsar. These bikes have MRF and ceat tyres mostly. It would be great if you shed some light on these daily use tyres and guide us as to what we can use as a daily driver. Love your content :)

    • @shu_mar
      @shu_mar Před 3 lety

      The honest answer is that Indian tyres haven’t evolved to the stage where there are massive differences between brands, especially in daily use. Luckily, there are few poor tyres on the market. Stay away from the highest-mileage options (they have the least grip generally in cheaper tyres) and you’ll be fine. MRF, Apollo, TVS all make good tyres. I haven’t used a CEAT in ages, but they’re reportedly decent too!
