I'd like to give a more "classic" cruiser look to my Black and Silver '02 BA by the addition of White Wall Tyres. Anybody found white walls in BA/SM rim sizes? (15" and 18")

Go to the "Messageboard Archives" and do a search, several members have put on whitewalls and it sure looks nice!

I've got whitewalls on my red beauty. Went with Dunlops, but I know you can get Maxxis as well. Same size for the rear, but you have to go up one size for the front. Doing this you also have to raise the front fender a bit to prevent rubbing.

It used to be an option from Triumph. Unfortunately they seemed to have trouble making them (they're plastic) and so they stopped. I've had no problems whatsoever with mine. You might have luck if you call around and ask for it. I know my dealer has a couple left, but that's here in Sweden...
