I had a TaoTao ATMa 49cc with 3.5 x 10 tires and did not like how it rode and handled . Going fast it felt like stunt driving . I know have a Jonway Magnum with 130/60/13s and WOW it is so much better and safer . I can do maneuvers on it that I would wreck if I tried to on my older scooter with 3.5x10s .
I am 6ft3 and too tall for a short case scooter as I had to slump over and be uncomfortable . The new one I can sit upright in comfort , its light years more stable , I feel safe at all times and I can even ride with no hands .
If you want to hot rod a 50 I would get a long case with 12 , 13 or 16s instead of 10 inch wheels to be safer .
A 2T scooter can be more fun to ride , tune and tweak and easily outrun and last longer

3.5 tires will be my next investment, the stockers just aint my style haha i had a benelli andretti m50 2t with 16 inch wheels, never got it running though...im 6ft even and this scooter is one of the smallest ive seen, i figured "less weight, faster speeds" i can sit on mine pretty good, though i have scoliosis so i naturally slouch a little i remember my old roketa mc 02 50b with 10 inch 3.5s and i could ride it no hands all day long, i actually thought 4ts lasted longer though? i know 2ts are faster but that was the main reason i got a 4t so i could make it fast, and have it for a year or 2 (my scoots are my only vehicle so its a daily driver) i was thinking about buying a longcase cvt and put it on my scoot, if i can do that, and add big 16 inch wheels to it, because i like the way they look, but i dislike how far it puts them in the air, i like more of a fast lowrider style haha thanks for your input, really enjoy talking about these sorts of things.
