Onewheel tire sizing is displayed with three values. ‘Overall height (inches) x Overall width (inches) – Hub diameter (inches). When considering an aftermarket tire, its important to understand each tire measurement and how they impact your riding experience.
The Onewheel GT tire dimensions are 11.5″ x 6.5″ – 6.5″ meaning the overall tire height is 11.5 inches tall. The overall width of the tire is 6.5″ wide and the hub size is 6.5″ in diameter. In comparison to Pint models, they have a 10.5″ x 4.5″- 6″ tire.
Onewheel GT Tire Size is Proprietary

Please see our post on GTR / GTXR conversions as riders that change their stock tire also change the hub of their Onewheel. In doing so, GT tire sizing is not applicable as this conversion utilizes an XR (or Pint) hub allowing use of those model sized tires. Tires that are available for your Onewheel are based on hub size. Future Motion had changed the tire sizing from a 6″ hub that existed on the XR predecessor to 6.5″.

The 11″x6.5″-6.5″ is a custom tire sizing. Prior to this, it was very easy to find a Onewheel tire replacement as 6″ hubs are common especially in the go-kart market. Currently however, the 6.5″ hubs is a custom size from Future Motion which limits the aftermarket tire selection.
Future Motion has kept the same tire height but traded 0.5 inch in tire sidewall for hub space. Many feel that this is a ploy by Future Motion to buy tires exclusively from them. Riders do often criticize the ride is not as smooth being that the sidewall has been lessened. To go with an aftermarket tire, options are limited currently to an Enduro tire by Floatlife. You can swap to a Pint or XR hub allowing for more tire availability however this is more involved.

From the success of Float Life’s XR Enduro tire, they bring the GT Enduro to the arena. This is a softer rubber tire with custom patches along the edges for a softer and quieter ride. As of now, this is the only aftermarket tire option for a stock Onewheel GT hub. This tire keeps the same dimensions of 11.5″x6.5″-6″ however being made of a softer rubber composite, the ride is smoother and less bouncy. It only comes as a treaded option however like the GT stock treaded tire, the grooves are not aggressive. Its the right amount allowing for easy street and trail riding.
Onewheels handle incredibly well off-road even with a slick tire installed. They do not require an aggressive tread. Yes, the treading provides for more traction but from my riding experience, I find that the more aggressive treading on a Hoosier or Burris is marginally better than the stock GT treaded (regarding traction). Ride quality differs but the point I want to make is that a subtle tread does the job right.

Is this tire going to be the ‘Greatest Of All Time’? This tire will rival the Enduro tire by FloatLife. Specs on this tire have yet to be released however currently it is only for a 6.5″ hub fitting only GT Onewheels currently. Why I think this tire is genius is the tread pattern. When you ride this tire, you are essentially advertising FlightFins everywhere you go.
Picture cruising on some packed beach sand. All you leave behind is the iconic “FF” logo in your path. With a rounder shoulder, ample amounts of sipes along the edge and one incredible tread pattern, this tire will challenge the Enduro for sure.

The stock tire is stiff rubber. It will likely get about 1000 miles of use however on wet surfaces, I find the rubber is so hard, its almost like plastic and does not do the best (traction-wise). I’m exaggerating however with a softer rubber, you really can fell the difference.

Stock GT slick tires are not as versatile as a treaded tire. Sadly, in my opinion the GT slick is inferior to the Vega slick that comes standard on the XR Onewheel. While the profile of the GT tire is more curved allowing for more play and nimbleness, the rubber material is tough. I do find that when the ground has some dew, there is some slipping. GT trailboards really should be treaded.
This post will be updated as more GT Onewheel tires become available. If you recently acquired a GT, the Enduro tire is the only option however initial reviews have been great and its an awesome tire to have as an alternate to the stock provided tire.
