Frequently Asked Questions


Q: What are SweetskinZ tyres and what makes them unique?
A: SweetskinZ has developed a process to apply full color graphic images and reflective attributes to its tyres. We manufacture and sell these tyres with varied designs, sizes and treads. The reflective features are also created to compliment the day look, providing a night look as well.

Q: Does the color wear off?
A: The color wears off where the rubber meets the road. The color of the underlying layer of rubber has been chosen to compliment the original tyres design. Other reflective and design properties will remain unchanged on the sidewalls and in between the treads.

Q: How do the tyres reflect?
A: Light that is directed towards the tyres will reflect back to its original source. The reflectivity is similar to what you will experience from stop signs as well as other road signs.

Q: Do the tyres glow at night?
A: They do not glow. They reflect light.

Q: How much reflection do your tyres provide?
A: Optimally, 90%.

Q: Can I take the reflectors off my bike if I have your tyres?
A: The reflective properties of SweetskinZ tyres are not intended to replace bicycle original equipment wheel reflectors and do not conform to EU Regulation 88 or USA CPSC regulations for original equipment wheel reflectors.

Q: Do your tyres weigh more than black tyres?
A: Our tyres weigh approximately the same as other quality tyres of similar specification.
