Total White Walls
Anyone have any idea as to where I can order a set of 16" white tires? Not white walls. But tires that are completely white! Like back in the 20's when tire manufacturers didn't add black dye to the rubber compound.

I have seen them advertised in a catalog but can't remember which. I do remember that there was a disclaimer stating the white tires were for restorations and show purposes only. Since all tire rubber is white before carbon black is added to them, you might call a manfacturer to talk about this.

Check "Coker Tire" on -line....they make a lot of retro car tires and I believe I read where they were branching out in the scooter market. May be worth a check and if they don't know, they seem to be pretty helpful, if they don't make em, maybe they could recommend somebody who does.

RE: Total White Walls
Thank you,... I appreciate you all watching for what I'm looking for. I sent them off an email. Lets see if they have what I'm looking for. I figure, white will leave me one step away from gaudey! But with those other colors,... I don't think I would ride my bike! lol
