All i need are tires.

Hey everyone, im new to this forum and glad to have found it. I have a 2001 gz 250 and im having trouble finding White wall tires for this bike. does anyone know where i can get a hold on a pair? ive noticed white wall tires are slightly wider, does that mean i have to replace the rim/wheel aswell?

Welcome to the forum ! :2tup: And safe riding !!

I don't think they make whitewall tires any more, you will have to get whitewall paint, they do have that. Just google it.

(edit) Oops I stand corrected, :blush: Dunlop makes them, I read just now.

Re: All i need are tires.

update, according to Blaine, the 150/90's are too wide to avoid rubbing on the frame
apparently Avon has the 140 size
