I have seen them, but do not care for that look, especially with the white walls, looks a like a kids bike, especially the "bobbers"; most of them that I have seen are actually pretty dorky.

Don't listen to lionsm13, do what you want. Personally I think it might be a fun look.
Not something I would care for much on my Custom, but on a Bones, yea I can see it.
Ya might want to ask one of the photoshop guru's if they can touch up a pic of an X-Bones with the red wheels and whitewalls so you could get a better idea what it would look like when its done.
