Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this tyre street legal?
While the tyre is E-Marked for quality standards, it is primarily designed for off-road and motocross applications. Check local regulations regarding tyre tread patterns for street use.
Does the CM708 work well in deep mud?
This tyre is designed for intermediate terrain. While it handles diverse conditions well, it may not provide the same self-cleaning capabilities as a dedicated mud-specific tyre.
Can I use this on a standard petrol motocross bike?
Yes, although it is optimized for electric motocross torque, its performance characteristics translate well to standard petrol-powered motorcycles requiring 3.00-18 tyres.
How often should I replace the tyre?
Replacement intervals depend on usage intensity, but you should inspect the tyre frequently and replace it if the tread blocks show significant rounding or wear reaching the wear indicators.
What does 'TT' stand for in the product title?
TT stands for 'Tube Type,' meaning this tyre requires an inner tube to hold air pressure.
Troubleshooting
Noticeable lack of grip during turns
Check your tyre pressure; under-inflation or over-inflation can significantly impact the shoulder tread engagement.
Uneven tread wear
Verify that your wheel alignment is correct and ensure the tyre is balanced properly for the specific weight of your motorcycle.
Vibrations at high speed
Check for debris wedged between the tread blocks and inspect the tyre for any signs of internal casing damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure peak performance, verify that the 3.00-18 sizing is compatible with your motorcycle rim specifications before installation. Proper inflation is critical; always follow the manufacturer's recommended pressure settings for your specific bike model and terrain type. Regularly inspect the tyre for debris or cuts after off-road sessions to maintain structural integrity. For cleaning, use low-pressure water and mild soap to remove dirt and mud buildup from the tread blocks, avoiding harsh chemical solvents that may degrade the rubber compound.
