Vintage Authenticity: Vee Rubber VRM-108 Classic Tire
Restore the timeless look of your classic machine with the Vee Rubber VRM-108 Tire. Specifically designed for vintage enthusiasts, this 4.00-8 tire features a period-correct tread pattern that perfectly complements the aesthetics of 1950s and 60s European scooters. While it maintains a "old-school" appearance, the VRM-108 is built with modern rubber compounds to provide the reliable grip and durability required for today's street-legal commuting.
