Yesterday I notice a 2 inch cut on my Rear Tire. It seems I have it scratch over a sharp edged surface. Thinking about my safety, I decided to change this swallow 100/80 16” tire for a new one.

Here below is a picture of swallow thunder 90/80 16” tire. It cost me Php1,280 for a tubeless tire. You can find one at L. Wood in taytay. Before I went there i check on P.J. Bonza the same Item and it cost more than a Php100.

Still wrapped and ready for fitting.

Here’s the thread look like. Looks like a front tire. But still can be used as rear. I need a 90/80 profile for my rear the 100/80 profile is to much for a 125cc displacement. Now the engine breathe faster.
