    Avon makes whitewall bike tires in all sizes. Not old school...not exactly cheap...but really good motorcycle tires with whitewalls.

    MA**IS ARE GOOD TIRES AND PRETTY CHEAP TOO. Usually you can score a
    pair for what one avon or dunlop will cost you. Check ebay too. Usually deals there. I have bought a lot of "take off" wide whites from the dealer. SOME guys hate them and take off new or like new tires. Demon Cycles in Florida is
    a good source.

    wheelworks is good but pricey.

    look around for Ma**is or their parent company CST or any tire from Hwa-Fong or Duro as they are known in the USA. these two tire companies make 90% of motorcycle and bicycle tires (with any name on them) that are made in Taiwan.

    also only buy M/C tires made in USA, Europe or Taiwan. all others are garbage...

    <shameless plug>We have Dunlop and Avon's in wide white wall at Dennis Kirk (www.denniskirk.com) for certain... maybe more brands. Also, it's a bit hidden, but we have a "beat it by a buck" policy on anything over $100, so if you find tires cheaper elsewhere, give us a ring, and we'll beat their price by a dollar. (Look for the "Low price guarantee" at the bottom of the page)
