I've seen plenty of those tyres around CT. But who the supplier is, I have no idea.

What you need are these, they attach the same as white walls inserts do, so much easier and neater... maybe Calooker can bring them in for us? :D

you can buy that pin striping with the little applicator in different colours from bike shops...about R100 one roll should be good for two rims

Now let me say i am and have never been a fan of american muscle cars but a friend has just bought a shelby 500 super snake and it makes something like 700hp :shock: driving that makes you wanna laugh out loud while soiling yourself have never felt something like that ,pure brute power.still not my cup of tea but verry verry impressive !
My biggest fear is that my wife sells my cars for what i told her they cost !!
