White Wall Tires
Let's see some photos of Nomads with white wall tires. I'm kind of thinking of getting them next time I need tires. I like the looks but are they worth the extra time cleaning them?

They do look nice but I got tired of cleaning them on the cars. Thankfully, don't have them on the cars anymore. Not going to put them on the Nomad because I don't want to have to clean them.

...My bike will be sporting www this year. I can't show a picture yet but they are mounted on the wheels and look great! I may live to regret putting them on. But I like detailing the bike so a little extra work should be worth it for the nice look. :)

I loathe cleaning the white walls! Every time I buy new tires, I swear I'm done with the hassle and am going with standard black rubber, but then I'm reminded how awesome they look on my Nomad, so....I just need to quit belly-aching and man up and do it.
Actually, I use SOS pads on them and they brighten right up. It's not too bad of job.

I too love the looks of the white walls. Too bad once you go to a ct you're pretty limited. And ct only have the ww on one side. :(

I love the look of WW on the Nomads, I think its a major point in completing the bike. They can be a pain to keep clean but when I get favorable comments on the bike it makes it all worthwhile.
I use Spray Nine and a green scotch brite pad and they clean up pretty good.
