Default Avon Cobra Wide Whitewall Tires

I just had the Avon Cobras thrown on today and I think they look great with the mag wheels. I definitely need to chop the rear fender at this point, and I think the look will be complete.

Yep I am sure that was me! I am usually running around in Jenison and Grand Rapids! Or hanging out at Grand Rapids Harley Davidson. Those wheels look great on the 48 by the way! I will have to look for ya when I am out and about on my 48!
