I bought this tire for my son's bike and it fits perfectly, because the description was precise. This tire size was not easy to find so I am glad i found it here at Amazon.

The sunlite/kenda tires are great for little boys to ride their bikes (and girls) on. The price is fair (about $10 each). These have a wired bead running thru the tire's edges so please use a couple of tire levers to seed (or pop) your tires on properly. The wire beads do add weight to the tires which is fine, but it would be nice if the 14" and 16" tires were lighter weight tires…..these are little legs that are trying to get the bike rolling. I ordered a few of these tires because each tire is going to last about one riding season (late March to late November) before losing that knobby tread. The smoother "city street" tread is fine for the 12" bicycles since most likely, your son or daughter on the 12" bike is still using their training wheels and doing a lot of their riding on the sidewalks and pavement. I chose the knobby tread (comp III tread for you BMX riders) for the 14" and 16" bikes because once the training wheels are removed, my boys are going to start exploring dirt, grass and anywhere their legs can pedal them on. Also the other reason I ordered a few spares is that eventually your kids are going to discover hitting the brakes and skidding. Just like you did when you were a kid, this is going to wear out your tires much faster.

If you're concerned about flats for your youngster once they start riding their bikes everywhere:

I also ordered the kenda/pyramid/sunlite thorn resistance tubes. I've been using the Bontrager TR 700c tubes in my Trek racing bike forever. I love them. Basically, the tubes are twice as thick on the side of the tube that faces the inside of the tire which adds a little more protection against flats…..not flat free, but certainly does add a little more protection. I don't recommend any of the tubes that have "slime" in them…..too messy…..too heavy. When I got into BMX racing around age 9, I also used the Mr. Tuffy tire liners on my Skyway Aero bike…..highly recommend the Mr. Tuffy tire liners too because they work great, but unfortunately, Mr. Tuffy tire liners don't come stock in smaller size than 20". You can still use them, but you'll have to cut the 20" Mr. Tuffy tire liners, but make sure to cut them so that there is about a 2" overlap. For your kids that seem to be getting a lot of flats, (a) get a good idea of the terrain they're riding on, (b) start with the thorn resistance tubes and then (c) add the Mr. Tuffy Liners……also try using some rim tape too. Rim tape is a sticky, heavy cotton tape that you wrap against the rim. There is a hole in the cotton tape to put over the corresponding hole where the tube stem pushes thru. The rim tape helps protect against flats that are caused by the spokes and the holes in the rim that the spokes are inserted thru.

This tire worked great for our sons bike which actually called for a 14x1.95 size which is not to be found except for companies located in China. Shipping was quick and I received it within a week of ordering. No complaints with the product or the company that purchased from.

Good tire, fit my son's bike. A little wider then what was on it, but it cleared the frame still with more traction.

My son's bike is an unusual size (14") that I was not able to find a replacement tire for locally. I was very grateful that I was able to get one here through Amazon. The tire is great quality and works perfect.
