The Hero Xoom 125 tyre size is 110/80-14 ahead with 120/70-14 at the back, each a tubeless fit for Hero's 14 inch alloys, on VX and ZX variants alike. Hero publishes these sizes itself, and spec sheets agree.
Fourteen inch wheels are large for a scooter. Most rivals use 12 inch or smaller rims, so the Xoom 125 rolls over potholes and speed breakers more like a small motorcycle. The flip side: Xoom 125 rubber is a rarer item at small shops, so walk in knowing the exact codes. Each number is unpacked below, followed by care advice.

Hero Xoom 125 tyre size by variant
| Variant | Front | Rear | Wheel |
|---|---|---|---|
| Xoom 125 VX | 110/80-14 | 120/70-14 | 14 inch alloy |
| Xoom 125 ZX | 110/80-14 | 120/70-14 | 14 inch alloy |
VX and ZX differ in features and finish, never rubber. Occasional listings mention a 100/80-14 front; Hero and the main spec sheets say 110/80-14, so buy that.
Front tyre: 110/80-14
Xoom 125 front rubber spans 110 mm, generous for a scooter, with 80 profile sidewalls of about 88 mm. Around its 14 inch rim that totals roughly 532 mm in height. Tall sidewalls absorb sharp edges, while the extra width bites harder under emergency braking than the slim 90 section fronts seen on many 110 cc scooters.
Rear tyre: 120/70-14
Behind, the Xoom 125 runs 120 mm of tread with a 70 profile, sidewalls close to 84 mm, standing about 524 mm overall. Carrying engine and rider, this Xoom rear goes bald ahead of its partner. Different sizes at each end rule out swapping them over. Each is tubeless, so a nail through the tread is normally plugged with the wheel still fitted.
Why 14 inch wheels matter on the Xoom 125
A bigger wheel meets a pothole at a shallower angle, so it drops in and climbs out with less of a jolt. On Indian roads with broken patches and unmarked speed breakers, that makes the Xoom 125 calmer than smaller wheeled scooters, especially two up. It also helps stability on fast bypass roads. The trade off is a heavier feel when pushing the scooter around a parking lot and fewer tyre options at small shops. Hero fits only these sizes, and changing rim size is not practical.
Xoom 125 tyre pressure
A spec listing gives 22 psi for the Xoom 125 front and 29 psi rear, solo, cold. We could not confirm this from a second source, and no pillion figure was published, so check the owner's manual supplied with the scooter. Look at pressure weekly; a small loss on a scooter tyre is enough to make steering heavy.
When to replace the tyres
Retire each Xoom 125 tyre once tread sinks to the small raised markers inside its grooves; usually the rear gets there first. Hairline cracking between blocks, a side bulge or a gash all call for inspection and a fresh tyre; meanwhile, ride the Xoom gently to a fitter. When buying, copy the load and speed rating from your current Xoom 125 sidewalls, and read the date code using tyre manufacturing date.
Compare with other scooters
TVS fits 100/80-12 front and 110/80-12 rear rubber on twelve inch Ntorq rims, as Ntorq tyre size shows, smaller than on the Xoom 125. Hero's larger model is covered separately on Xoom 160 tyre size. Scooters and motorcycles of every make are compared on bike tyre size.
Questions owners ask
Xoom 125 back tyre: what size?
120/70-14 tubeless, on the Xoom's 14 inch back alloy; VX and ZX share it.
What goes on the Xoom 125 front wheel?

Can I swap Xoom 125 front and rear tyres?
No. Front measures 110/80-14 and rear 120/70-14, so each needs its own tyre.
Are Xoom 125 tyres tubeless?
Yes, both Xoom 125 tyres are tubeless on alloys, and a typical tread puncture gets a quick plug.
What tyre pressure for the Xoom 125?
One spec listing suggests 22 psi up front with 29 psi out back, cold, riding solo. Confirm it in the Hero manual, particularly for two up riding.
