I think he is saying that the white wall is much narrower than anticipated.

Indeed, the picture showed a full white wall and what i received was a white wall that was half as wide as the front tire. They are very nice though.

*UPDATE* Well when measuring everything for tire fit I forgot a very important clearance, the one between my tire and my chain. Chock another one up to inexperience. bah. Called the place I got the tires from, seems to be a pretty painless return, thank god. Unfortunately I'll probably have to order more tires before I get my refund, not much meat left on the rear. Got my lowering kit today but until I get my tail light for my side mount and I can remove the tail mount I don't want to put it on. I swear by the time I get done with this project I'm gonna be too tired to even enjoy it lol. : D

Hi-Five to all the people who have completed their projects!

*UPDATE* Not a big one but I finally got my turn signals from China, after about a week and a half. Also bought one of those "Cool Blue Headlights". Well the first thing I noticed about my "High Quality" turn signals are that they are pretty much useless in the daylight, but considering that you aren't supposed to have any at all on a bobber/chopper I think they will do just fine. They are $2 a pair so I'm not crying lol. Later today I should be fitting the Hardtail/Lowering conversion and may lay some paint on the front fender and chrome parts. Still haven't decided between semi-gloss and matte for the main color of the bike. I do however know that all the chrome and highlight parts on the bike will be gloss so they will get painted today

2Ww, you got your monies worth. You better brush up on your hand signals because those little guys wouldn't light up the inside of a cow. And they are far too close together to do anything but confuse drivers. :lol: :lol:

They may also not be legal for street use for both of those reasons. Can you separate them for more distance between them?
