Is the wide tire kit from HD include a specially designed tire to fit the stock rim or is it a standard size? Also I like the wide white wall look, assuming the 180 rear kit, what tires are available?

 

the widest white wall is a 150 and you have to go with a 16 inch wheel.///....no white walls for a 17 inch wheel

 

im in the middle of doing it so any questions go ahead and ask

 

Hey ventura, you end up going with the avon venoms? can't wait to see it. It's going to be interesting to see the whitewalls/drag bar setup, I can't imagine it, but i am sure it would look pretty killer

yeah man i have my hub at the lacers house....but its going to be done after the holidays.......... i got the avon

 

No whitewalls for 17" wheels. There is a 170 for a 15" though, which is the direction I'm headed in.

 

The SE Dunlop is a special tire designed to fit on a smaller rim but, you can fit regular 180 tires on there like the Metzler me880.From what I've seen though the Metz and a few other tires don't look as wide as the dunlops.They don't make white walls in the sizes for the Street Bob so there only two options, 1 convert to 16" rims or 2 paint your stock sized tires.There was a Forum member who actually went the paint route early on and it came out suprisingly good.

I'd be interested to see pics of a Street Bob with white walls if anybody has them.

 

It would be worth a shot................................ . . . .......................... . . ..............
