Default Please help find 21" whitewall

I'm trying to find a 120/70/21 whitewall for my friends Roadking. He got a 21x3.5 DNA spoke last year and it's been sitting on the shelf until now. We can't find anyone who makes this size. I have the same wheel with a blackwall 120 Metzler and I would think this should be a pretty common request for a whitewall given the popularity of the 21" front on FL softails and touring bikes. I heard Vee Rubber was making one but their site is under construction. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks...J

For a 21" whitewall you will need to get a 90/21 and stretch it on to get the bead to seat. I got an Avon. I don't know if Metz even makes a 21 ww. My wheel is only 3 wide instead of 3.5 for this exact reason.

Unfortunately we already have the 3.5" wide rim. The 90/90 is too much of a stretch and probably won't look right.

You could always use the whitewall paint. I have read varied reviews of it.
