Default Rear white wall for my bobber

Does any body know of any co. who makes a white wall for a 17" rear wheel. i think i found a front one by Maxxis by no cigar for the back. I want to keep the stock rim, i know white walls come a dime a dozen for 15 inch rims.

I have yet to see a whitewall for a 17" rim. I want to do them at my first tire change but if there is none available at that point, I'll just get a 16" wheel for the rear. Also wanna powdercoat the rims and hubs.

Do a search on Google, etc. for whitewall paint or something similar.

I know that a couple guys on the Volusia forum that i used to go to did it and it worked out well.

Has anyone found 17" tires in any brand but Dunlop?

Here's the link. I will be ordering 2 cans soon to do my tires. I figure by the time I run out of paint someone will have come out with a matching set of white walls in stock rim sizes.

What about if you do the wide rear tire upgrade kit that turns it into a 180mm (I believe)... can you find a white wall for size? If the flag poles for my rack turn out good at this local powder coating place I am going to have them do my wheels red. However if I can't get white walls then I may rethink that a bit.

There are no whitewalls for 17" rims in any size. Regardless of width.
