Thanks for the reply mate.I just found some Shinko whitewalls here in the UK,for similar money to the Maxxis i have been using.They have a profile like the ones you have.But a harder compound,much deeper tread,than the Maxxi,and more of it on the road.Maybe Santa is going to bring me a set.

looking forward to seeing your new paint job, I took my panels off right before I left on deployment once I get back I will be sending them in for a paint job as well.
