8.5 road solid tire for Xiaomi

8.5" Solid Road Tire for Xiaomi

Road profile: Closed tread with angled channels.

Choosing a high-quality and suitable tire is crucial for safe riding and getting the most out of your electric scooter.

A solid tire eliminates the need for inner tubes, but the ride will be stiffer, less comfortable, and will offer less grip.

At the eVolt service network, we have tested many tire brands and selected those that perform best on Xiaomi electric scooters and are made from the highest quality rubber material.

The package includes one tire.

Preventing tire punctures

The most common cause of flat tires is riding with incorrect inner tube pressure. Most electric scooters require at least 3.5 bar, which should be checked regularly with a pressure gauge – ideally once a week.

Riding with incorrect inner tube pressure can cause:

• Inner tube damage and punctures
• Tire wear from inside and outside
• Poor grip and increased risk of slipping
• Longer braking distances
• Worse handling characteristics

Since inner tube valves on electric scooters are hard to reach, our offer includes a valve extender that makes inflation much easier. For the easiest inner tube inflation, we recommend the Xiaomi portable battery-powered pump.

Pros and cons of a solid tire

Solid tires completely eliminate problems with punctured tires, but they come with some disadvantages:

• Less comfortable ride and reduced shock absorption
• Less grip compared to pneumatic tires
• Increased vibrations that can stress electronic components
• Higher risk of slipping – especially in cold or wet conditions, as the rubber warms up less efficiently

Service information

Replace the tire immediately when you notice worse handling, reduced grip, shaking, or visible wear. With normal use, tires should be replaced every 1,000–2,000 kilometers.

Improper installation of the inner tube or tire can cause:

• Motor cable damage
• Motor frame damage
• Sharp cuts on the rim
• Damage to both the tire and the new inner tube

For a correct and professional tire replacement, turn to the nearest service center in our network. When replacing a punctured tire, always check both the inner tube and the outer tire, as incorrect pressure often damages both. A damaged tire will significantly shorten the service life of any new inner tube.
