Owned 30 mopeds-Puch is by far the best out there-no major problems and easy to
work on!

I have a chance to buy 2 1980 Pugh bikes with less than 500 miles each.  Owner
tells me  they could maybe use new tires.  My brother in law saw them and says they
are in excellent condition for their age.  Owner is asking $400 for the pair.  Do
you have any idea what tires run for the bikes?  Thanks for any comments.

Yes;
New tires 2.25'' x17'' usually run between $15 to $25 a piece.
I would recommend the Cheng Shin brand tires made in Taiwan over the cheaper
Indian made types. There may be nothing wrong with some of the Indian made ones but
Chen Shin is a reputable economy brand.
If you can find Michelin tires for under $30 they are better still. Duro tires
have a bad reputation among some so I wouldn't use those. There are higher priced
performance ones up to $50 but for a bike that tops out at 35mph it's a waste.
You can get tires through E-bay or mail order but I would try a motorcycle shop
first. Ask for a set for an early Honda 90 to help the counter clerk find a listing.
