IRC

At one time IRC tires were fitted on most Honda off-road motorcycles, and the company continues to be a supplier to the OEMs today, particularly on lower-end off-road playbikes. IRC continues to supply the aftermarket with a variety of models as well.

For off-road riders, IRC offers its Volcanduro VE-39 (front) and VE-40 (rear) tires for big four-stroke singles and two-strokes. IRC says that these tire models are built to withstand the toughest conditions under extreme power. They boast tough casings to resist cuts/punctures, specially formulated rubber compounds and aggressive tread designs. For high-speed desert competition, IRC also offers its VE-40 BJ COMP, which it calls an extra-durable version.

IRC also offers several motocross-specific tire models, including the iX-09W for intermediate terrain, the iX-05H for hard terrain and the iX-07S for soft terrain. But the company’s latest is the M1A/M5B EVO combo, whose self-cleaning tread is claimed to be the ideal choice for running in the mud or through the sand.
