I chopped a 79, 16 inch spoke rear and 19 front. got my maxis classic thick white walls from J&P they were 80ish a piece. Got my hardtail from KansasKustoms, and had to modify my axle to fit. They size the hard tail for “stock” yamaha parts, but for some reason cut the axle plate for a Harley axle. go figure. So I just machined .020 flat on one side the axle, to get the right .757 dia. That said, the Quality is AWESOME and it look great.

Brad, where did you get your rear fender? I have been killing myself to find the “right ” one.

Do you think the rear tire will fit? What tires do you have? I would assume that the hubs are the same on stock 16″ and 18″ wheels, so my new rear rim would look the same as your rear wheel just a 1/2″ wider.

@ Chris
You’re going to have a hard time finding a white wall for a stock 18″ rear wheel.
Best bet is to switch to the 16 inch.

If you are going to order one BE SURE you check the wall thickness of the tail you are getting! Some companies are making them so thin they are flat out DANGEROUS! Happy Chopping,
Brad

I’ve called a lot of company’s and nobody has them tires. They were discontinued about 6 months back so probably gonna have to run a blackwall.
