Re: Where to find a tire like this?
what is the rest of the tire spec?
rim size profile as somebody like Metzler or Avon may do it. I would check the Metzler site and see as they do some pretty big boots for custom applications. Also check companies like Roaring Toyz and altered chrome (i think) as they do the wide wheeled, long swing arm sports bikes and they may be able to help

Re: Where to find a tire like this?
Its not for a sport bike. I've got a custom springer with a Avon 250 rear on a 8.5" wheel, with a spring seat and half fender, and think a whitewall would look good. This was the only pic I could find to reference to.
I will look where you suggested though and I thank you for the help. |

Talked to the guys at Avon and they told me that they do not make a tire that size with a whitewall nor do they do any custom work like that. Have yet to receive anything back from Metzler.

Go check on ebay for whitewall paint then you can make your own out of a plain black tire.

Chizzle if you read the post you will see that he has tried Metzler, Avon and a few others with no success, do you know of a custom shop that can supply this as i think he would appreciate this greatly
