I'm going to have to get new tires soon, and am kicking around the idea of whitewalls. I have a blue Ultra Classic. I'll insert a picture of the bike now.
My question is: will whitewalls look goofy on these mag wheels?? I've got a buddy who is telling me DO NOT GET WHITEWALLS! You need spike wheels for whitewalls and another saying he is crazy. They would look awesome.
Any pics of touring bikes with whitewalls on the stock mags would help me decide also.
Depends on the bike. The THIN whitewalls look OK........all Electra Glides used to come with them years ago. The wide whites only look good on certain bikes like the Road King Classic and Softail Deluxe, or a classic older Harley.........other than that, NO. Wide whites on your bike? I don't think they'd look good. The thin ones would look great.
Looks good:
Looks silly:
But, everyone's taste is different.
