I know white wall tires have been talked about on the darkside treads for the back tire, but has anyone mounted a white wall tire on the front of a Vision? If so, post a picture, if not, I plan to do a little photoshopping to see what they would look like.

There is a company that sells a touring tire for the front:

Oddly the company says it can be used on the front or back... Hmmm, a tire company that would darkside a front tire. Opps, sorry, we need to get on track about oil.

Vee Rubber has all the odd tires. I think they're the only maker of a 26" front tire, too. A car tire in the rear and a rear motorcycle tire in the front is called a "double darkside". Just pointing that out. No need to get into a discussion about the pros/cons.

OK, photoshop done.

Black with white walls isn't too bad, but the blue looks good.

I love white walls but I just don't see it on the Vision.

I thought that I wouldn't like them on a Vision, but they do add a cool factor to it. I could see a 21 in. spoke front rim like an 80 spoker, 7 degree rake kit, custom front fender ,2 into 1 header with a custom filler panel for the left side exhaust delete. Hey you custom guys get those custom wheels turning. A Vision can do custom as well if not better than a Road Hog.

I've been looking for Vision white walls for 2 years!! I think they'd look great on my 2008 'vicrokt'.

Lots o' bling

Nice job Steven. Those both look good. Definitely replace both tires and not just the front!
