A tyre should stick to the road in dry weather, not slip in the wet, last a long time, look good and be reasonably priced. We have tried to realise all these requirements in our SIP Performer tyres. Judging by customer feedback, we seem to have succeeded.
The tyres were developed in cooperation with renowned OEM tyre manufacturers, homologated and extensively tested by us. They are characterised by very sporty properties: they have excellent grip on dry roads and very good handling in the wet. The 3.50s are homologated up to 120 km/h due to the L-marking, the 3.00s even up to 150 km/h. They are therefore the first choice for all tyre manufacturers. This makes them the first choice for all tuners and legalize-it fans. They can be ridden with inner tubes or on tubeless rims. With wear indicator: Small ridges in the tread indicate the minimum tread depth. To make it easier to find these ridges, they are marked TWI on the side! The high tread depth enables an above-average service life. The price-performance ratio is almost unbeatable! The tyres have the current ECE homogolation E4 and are thus also approved for all newer models. The additional "reinforced" marking also solves potential problems with all those who are not familiar with the current tyre markings.
Opinions of customers and experts
"I have now chased the tyre hundreds of kilometres through Naples and southern Italy on the SIP Trip on partly very bad roads. It has more pleasant cornering than the Schwalbe Paceman and now still plenty of tread. Long-term test passed."
-Fabian, SIP Team
"Better than the Conti Twist in terms of handling and grip."
-Hajo, SIP Team
"Handling and cornering better than the 3.50-10 as outer flank seems to be pulled further down. Good to very good on dry roads, on wet roads it eventually smears away."
-Robert, SIP Team
"I wasn't sure if and how much you feel a difference, but actually it is well noticeable. Compared to my old tyre, it drives much more lively, agile, sporty."
-Ralph, Gronsdorf Vespa Garage

"I fitted it v&h on my PX200E. At full speed on the highway, my tuned Vespe has become much more stable. The Bracket in the curves is simply brilliant, a real racer! I can now take the Vespa to its limits (main stand rubber and SITO Plus touch the ground) in a sideways position. The price-performance ratio is indescribable."
Smiley, Copenhagen Scooterclub, 06/2008 (about item no. 7959000):
"We did our summer trip from Narbonne-France to SIP, Landsberg through the alps. Best grip, still enough material to go on, perfect handling even in rain. My first choice of Vespa tires. Buy it or die. CSC."
SIP community user matlock77 (about item no. 7959000):
"Super sporty Tyre. Depending on how the Vespa is ridden, it also lasts. I've just done 2500km and so has the rear tire (extreme acceleration). But will be put back on immediately!!!"
