and that's a point for the black walls. thanks Mimo and thanks for all of you guys.

 

Talk to Tab at DB tires. He'll make you a 120/70 white wall that beats all white Walsh out there.

 

one last question ... what about 18X3.5 on the rear with the 21X3.5 on the front?

dose it look cool or should I stick with the 16 ib the rear and 21 on the front?

 

If I were running black walls I'd get an 18" for the rear.

I'm looking to do the same in a few weeks.

Take a look at this thread and at Malingerer bike. Looks killer 21x3.5 and 18x4.25 with a 150mm rear wheel. White walls from db

Ive got a couple thousand miles on my Vee 120/70...the tire seems to be holding up and performing fine but the white wall is starting to turn brown so that makes the Vee tire basically useless for anyone who wants a white wall.

On the flip side guys like DB want $400 for a custom whitewall which is just stupid money for a front tire unless you have a Corvette.

I am going to wait it out for a 120/70 from a mainstream manufacturer on the next one, should be any time now

 

Its not $400 for the tire. It's about $100 more than the standard tire

There isn't a 120/70 in production so won't be coming anytime soon, so $100 more is way worth it opposed to a brown wall

 

Im looking for a 16 brownwall for the back to match up the set...

 

Nice! Could always try the shoe polish trick.

 

I am old and set in my way,,, but having to buy WW tire back in the 60's cause thats all we could get, that is why I hate them.....

only bike I really like WW's on is a Lux that's two toned and it has to be black on the sides of the tins with the center of the Fenders white...

Look at the SIG of MOTown, above,,, thats what I am talking about and like..

I've seen other Lux's that has white paint on the side's and dark color in the middle of the fender's.... That I don't like and IMO Black walls would look better....

That MY .02 cents worth....
