Default white walls for 200mm rear tire impossible to find?

doing a black and white theme on my 2010 fatboy lo and cannot find any other options for whitewalls for the rear tire. 200 55 17 is what i need, and the only company i've found is vee rubber which i've never heard of. anyone use vee rubber tires? here is a site a found them on:
http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...wall-rear-tire

any thoughts? other options?

not sure about other tire brands, but i know there's companies that will make you a white wall if you provide the tire. i'm still surprised that dunlop and other big names haven't made a white wall yet for that size, especially since it comes on the crossbones and fatboys, which look great with white walls

Has anyone swapped in a 18" wheel with a 180 tire in the rear of a 200mm softail?
