80/65-6 reinforced tubeless road tyre (255x80)

Size and equivalents

The 80/65-6 is also designated 10x3 or 255x80: outer diameter 255 mm, width 80 mm, 6 inch rim. All three notations refer to the same tyre.

Note that the 6 inch rim is not interchangeable with the 6.5 inch. This is the leading cause of error on this size: the 10x2.75-6.5 and the 10x3.0-6 look similar in designation but do not fit the same wheel.

Reinforced casing

The structure carries additional plies compared with the standard version. It resists punctures, kerb impacts and pinching at low pressure better.

This is the version to offer for intensive use, heavy loads, or a customer who keeps coming back to the workshop. In return, it is heavier and firmer.

Tubeless fitment

Fitted without an inner tube, on an airtight rim only. Replace the tubeless valve at the same time to guarantee the seal, and add sealant if the use requires it.

On a non-airtight rim, this tyre is fitted with an 80/65-6 inner tube.

Sold individually, fits front or rear.

Road tread

Tread designed for tarmac, dry or wet. For mixed or off-road use, see the PN-141 in reinforced tubeless or the PN-05 in tubetype.

The seven versions of this size

Wattiz stocks the 80/65-6 in seven versions. The size is identical, only the fitment, tread and construction change.

PN-140 — reinforced tubeless, road
PN-141 — reinforced tubeless, off road
PN-06 — tubetype road, standard quality
PN-05 — tubetype off road, standard quality

Tubetype and tubeless are not freely interchangeable: switching to tubeless requires an airtight rim, going back to tubetype requires adding an inner tube.
