Re: White wall tires for the gz 250?

Not digging it with the blue but those would rock with the white paintjob I want.

Bigger fenders may catch more air and slow you down. I am sure Alan can relate to this with his bicycle experience.

For those who haven't seen it, there is a white GZ on the 'globalsuzuki' site.

Re: White wall tires for the gz 250?

I think this will get you to the pics of our member with the whitewall tires on his GZ.

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3537&start=0

And this may be the link to those whitewalls you are looking for.
http://www.amazon.com/Avon-AM42-Venom-R ... B001CD5A18

Here is a 140/90-15 Whitewall for $106.99
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001CD ... automotive

Here is an MT90-16 Whitewall for $195.99 Not sure if this will work on the front or not, but it looks like the one that is on the GZ in the other thread.

Here's a Whitewall Dunlop D404 130/90-15 for $122.56

Burkbuilds - The whitewalls you found, are these dimesionally the same as those on a GZ?

I'm desperate to found some WW's that will fit! I'm new to custom tire fitting, an help would be great.

Cheers,

Re: White wall tires for the gz 250?

i have not read all the post on this thread yet but i am pretty darn sure they make some kind of tire pain so you can paint your non white walls into white walls.

Well, at least the Dunlop 404 130/90-15 is, that is the spec size for the rear tire. The others have some variation from OEM spec sizes so I'm not sure about them. The MT 90-16 MIGHT work on the front, but I'm not positive because I don't know how that compares to the OEM specified size of 110/90-16. Hopefully someone here more knowledgeable about tires can answer that, or maybe you could call a shop and ask a tire salesman what the difference in the two is. Good luck.

The MT90-16 is the same as a 130/90-16.ML90-16 is the same as a 110/90-16.
