Street tires only, or a full supermoto wheelset?
If your stock rims are the right size, tires-only is the cheaper swap. A full wheelset gets you rims, tires and — on some kits — sprocket, rotors and spacers, and lets you keep your knobby set mounted on the stock wheels.
Who this is for
Riders who want pavement rubber and are weighing cost against convenience.
Cost
Torq's tire products start from $195.00; wheelsets start from $289.99.
Install effort
Tires-only means mounting tires on your existing rims. A wheelset bolts on as complete wheels, with a rotor and sprocket transfer only if your kit requires it — see what's in the box.
Running two sets
With a wheelset you keep your knobby tires on the stock wheels and swap between dirt and pavement.
Which to choose
- Tires-only is enough when your stock rims match Torq's listing and you don't plan to switch back to knobbies.
- A wheelset is better when you want to swap between dirt and pavement, or want the included parts on kits that have them.

FAQ
Is tires-only cheaper than a wheelset?
Yes. Tires-only is the cheaper option; a full wheelset costs more but includes the wheels. Current prices are on each product page.
Why buy a full wheelset?
You get rims and tires (plus sprocket, rotors and spacers on some kits) and can keep your knobby tires on the stock wheels.
