There are many things you can customize on your bike, including your tires. There are different tires for different types of motorcycles, of course, and there are some different tires for different types of weather as well. The type of tires that you need for your bike depends on several factors.
Street tires are the standard tires for most riders, especially those who spend most of their time riding to work or on other errands in the city. The most stable and durable are street tires made for cruisers. At the other end of the spectrum are street tires for sport bikes, which are ranked for high speed but get less fuel efficiency. There are other tires in between for different types of bikes.
Track tires, on the other hand, are high performance tires for racers. They're actually slower on standard streets because they grab the road with a better grip. That's great for riding on a track, but it doesn't work very well on streets, especially in the rain. They're also great for cornering but not that great for stability.
If you ride your bike off-road, you'll want some off-road tires. There are actually a number of different styles of off-road tires, and the ones you want will depend on the surface you'll be riding on. There are different tires for desert, hard rock, dirt, and forest surfaces.
You also have to decide between bias and radial tires. Bias ply tires have high sidewalls and a round profile, while radial tires have a more square profile and shorter sidewalls. Radial tires have more contact with the road. These tires also make the ride more smoothly and allow for higher performance.
