Looks like a 19" front? If so,i believe that the whitewall band is narrow on 19" tires. If you're going with a wide white wall tire for the rear,it may not give you that look you want. Try the rear first and go from there.

I prefer the look of just the rear wheel being a whitewall.

I think whitewalls should always be added as a set.

Ether way is cool IMO. Here is a matching set .150-80-16 rear 110-90-19 front Avon Venom WWW The 110-90-19 is no longer made .But you can get the 100-90-19 from Avon which is the stock size any way.

I really like this setup on the attached image for the 110 avon front tire. there are still places online where you can find them. My question is, is that a roland sands fork brace, where the front fender use to be. Im wondering if removing the fender and adding this same tire, do i have to cuatom build a fork brace or the rs brace for sportster fit with the width of this tire. Rs calls out 19 and 21" tires but its the width im worried about.
