Skinny White Wall 16" Bias Ply?

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by suede55bowtie, Mar 7, 2013.

  1. Anyone out there make a skinny white wall 6.00x16 tire? or similar 16" bias size? All I found are motorcycle tires, and thick white walls. Looking for something around 1" that'll be safer than the back tire on my old Triumph.

    Go with a black wall and get some white tire paint. That way you can make it the size you want and WHERE you want it!

  4. Those are 2.5" whitewalls, unless im missing something? Looking for 1" whitewalls or similar. Is tire paint my only option?

    You're right, my mistake, I mis-read your post above and was thinking you were looking for WWW.
     
  6. Its all good! Might have to buy wwws anyways, not coming up with anything skinnier.

    What would be the metric/radial size equivalent of 6.00-16?

    This may sound silly, but you might be better off getting a wide white and black tire paint.



    He closest I've found is a 215/85/16. I think its still taller at 30.2" than the 6.00 X 16 though. Might check Coker's website for details.
