RAkthi, hadnt got that far about that but didnt realize it would be a problem ordering the tires. Great looking Crossbones.

I wanted to do red rims & white walls on my train but had trouble finding tyres that would fit,



I think it would have looked cool...

I have a lo too and was think this same idea. Besides the 200 rear the stock lo wheels are 17 and not alot of side wall so the white stripe would not look as good as a lux with 16" wheels. I cant remeber who but some one has a standard fatboy on here, i think 4-bagger, has ww and it looks good on his bike.
