@533clive

I've been looking into paint on whitewalls. Could I pick your brain as to what product you used and how difficult was the application. I'll be painting my wheels red this weekend and wanted to finish it off with some whitewalls. My shinko's are to new to replace so I just decided to go the painted on whitewall route. Any info would be appreciated.

If you look at my post in the for sale section for my project for sale, you'll see the result of one years riding. In fact, here you go:

I'm painting the wheels red this weekend and was gonna do the tires at the same time.

Wouldn't bet on that, the Shinko 712F on my 03 has close to 20K on it and still has casting whiskers and a lot of tread left... but I have worn out 2 n.o.s. Dunlop rear tires in the same time frame (1 year). If your Shinkos are fresh, expect a long service life. I have a 15 year old Cheng Shin on the carcass of my 98, and the tire is still viable...
