Big bike tyres in India
Hi,
I realise this is an old thread but I'll put my experience here. We could not find tyres in India, 140/80 17 and 150/70 18, in July 2014. Apparently a few years back the Indian government changed the law and now tyres sold in India must be approved (INSS) which I'm told is a costly exercise so if the market is small for the big Adventure type bike tyres nobody will spend the money to import the tyres and get them approved.
I ended up getting tyres sent to Delhi from ZenOverland in the UK. It cost quite a bit in freight and duty but at least we got the right tyres for our bikes. ZenOverland did a great job getting the tyres to us in under a week. I would recommend them if you need tyres to be sent overseas.
