Frequently Asked Questions

What does the 79H rating mean?

79 is the load index (capacity of 437 lbs per tire), and H is the speed rating (130 mph max sustained speed).

Is this a bias-ply or radial tire?

This is a bias-ply tire (TL tubeless), the traditional construction preferred by many cruiser riders.

Will this tire last longer than stock cruiser tires?

Yes — the elevated tread depth and silica-rich compound are engineered for extended mileage compared to standard cruiser tires.

Can I use this on the front wheel?

No — this is a rear-specific tire. Order the appropriately sized SR 999 front tire for your front wheel.

Does it need a tube or is it tubeless?

It's tubeless (TL) — it can be run without a tube if your rim is tubeless-compatible.
