What Size Tire Does My Electric Scooter Take?

The size is moulded into the sidewall of the tire you already have — two numbers such as 10 × 2.125 or 8 1/2 × 2, or a metric code like 60/70–6.5. Read it, then match it below. Levy stocks 8.5″ × 2″, 10″ × 2″, 10″ × 2.125″, 10″ × 2.5″ and 60/70–6.5 tires.

Size chart — what Levy stocks and what it fits

This chart lists only fitments stated on the product pages. A tire is a safety part, so there is no “probably fits” row here: if we have not confirmed it, it is not listed.

How to read the sidewall

Three formats cover almost every scooter tire on the road.

  • Imperial, decimal10 x 2.125. Outside diameter in inches, then width in inches. The most common scooter format.
  • Imperial, fractional8 1/2 x 2. The same thing written with a fraction. 8 1/2 x 2 and 8.5 x 2 are the same size.
  • Metric, motorcycle style60/70-6.5. Section width in millimetres, aspect ratio as a percentage, then rim diameter in inches. This one trips people up because none of the numbers is the outside diameter.

If the moulding has worn away, measure the outside diameter of the inflated tire and the width at its widest point. That gets you to the right family; the exact width still matters, so confirm before ordering.

Solid, tubed or tubeless — pick by how you actually ride

TubelessRecommended 50–60 PSI. No tube to pinch. Harder to reseat if it unseats.
TubedRecommended 35–40 PSI. Cheapest to repair. Pinch flats are the failure mode.
SolidNo air required. Cannot puncture. Firmer ride, harder to fit.

The tradeoff is genuinely a tradeoff. Solid tires end punctures and end the air cushion at the same time; on a scooter without suspension you feel every seam. The rule that holds up: if you have fixed two or more flats in the last year, go solid. If you have fixed none, stay on air.

The three types are covered in more depth on the tire types guide.

Tube only, tire only, or the whole wheel?

  • Tube only when the tread is fine and you have a puncture. Cheapest fix, and the one most people need.
  • Tire and tube when the tread is worn, the casing is cut, or you are switching from pneumatic to solid.
  • Whole rear wheelset when you would rather not fight the bead at all. The rear wheelset arrives with the tire already mounted on the hub and axle, which is the honest answer for a lot of home repairs. The disc rotor is sold separately.

Frequently asked questions

Where is the tire size printed?

On the sidewall of the tire, moulded into the rubber. It reads as two numbers: the outside diameter and the width, for example 10 x 2.125 or 8 1/2 x 2. Some scooter tires use a metric motorcycle-style code instead, like 60/70-6.5, which describes width, aspect ratio and rim diameter rather than outside diameter.

Are 10 x 2 and 10 x 2.125 interchangeable?

They are different widths on the same nominal diameter, and Levy sells them as separate parts with separate SKUs. Order the one that matches your sidewall. Fitting a tire your rim was not built for is a handling and bead-seating problem, not a minor size difference, so we do not publish a cross-compatibility chart for them.

What does 60/70-6.5 mean?

It is a metric tire code: roughly 60 mm section width, a 70 percent aspect ratio, on a 6.5 inch rim. It works out to about a 10 inch outside diameter, which is why the Levy listing shows it as 60/70-6.5 (10"). If your sidewall reads this code, order that specific variant rather than a 10 x 2.125.

What pressure should I run?

On Levy tires the published figures are 50 to 60 PSI for a tubeless tire and 35 to 40 PSI for a tubed tire. A solid tire needs no air at all. For any other brand, use the pressure printed on your own sidewall. Underinflation is the single most common cause of a pinch flat.

Do I need just the tire, or the tire and the tube?

If your tire is tubed, a puncture usually means a new tube and, if the tread is worn or the casing is cut, a new tire as well. Tubeless tires have no tube. Solid tires have neither. The Levy 8.5 inch tire is a tubed tire and requires an inner tube, which is sold separately.

Which brands does Levy stock tires for?

Levy Light, Levy Plus, the Segway Ninebot Max series and Okai fleet scooters. We do not stock tires for Xiaomi, GoTrax, Hiboy, Turboant, NIU, Apollo, Unagi, Razor, Varla, Kaabo or Dualtron. A tire is a safety part, so we list only sizes we have confirmed rather than publishing a chart of likely fits.
