Carlos,
If its for a car you can find ads in the hot rod magazines.......if its for your bike you would have to wait till something embarassing happens on your bike and they will redden up by them selves..LOL

You can get red tires. Red stripes on wheels are popular, but not on tires. Heck, you can't even get whitewalls (white stripes) in most sizes.

No company has made red line motorcycle tires for many, many years. However, I have seen people get the white wall tires, with the fine white line rather than the wide white wall, and use a red flexable paint to make their own red line tires. Make sure the paint is one intended for flexable surfaces.

I might try that next year. I think that the paint that they use on new car bumpers might work.

I was thinking next year when or if I buy new tires I would like 1/2 inch red strip like some of older cars had. I think it would good on my bike.

Well dave are you going next weekend. No wifes, my friend joe coming with his nitro chopper. I feel sorry for him a 60 mile ride on a bike with no shocks.

Wasn't there a thread where someone put some stripes on their wheels...or maybe it was some lights, which were Red...and looked pretty cool.

But no, haven't seen a manufactured red wall...ever.
