Basketball Tires

[kingplinker]

Hey, found this pic someplace online, not sure where - anyways, although I think the basketball tank is goofy, I was interested in the TIRES. They are a colored tires with what seems to be a blackwall (rather than whitewall). Home-made or can you buy tires like this? Cheers, Troy.

Ok, I need a FOOTBALL themed bike! (American Football that is we call the other soccer). I can see it now, brown tires, brown paint with a white thread graphic on the tank, and handlbars that look like goalposts!

ISO brown paint, how about green with white yard lines. Helmet tank and a shoulder pad for a seat? Sounds so awsome, it'll smack you in your ear hole :mrgreen:

It is hard to tell, but I think the tread on those looks like a Maxxis Hookworm, although that is one of my favorite tires and I am unaware of them offered in anything but black.

How's that for a non answer?

At Walmart I noticed a 20" BMX style bike that has what looks like sweetskinz tires on it. A brown cammo color if I recall correctly.

They remind me of my LBS, they sell tyres that are a bit paler than that, but anyway, the tyres are solid!
