What size tire is that?.. I'm looking to get a new set of W/W tires for my dream. but would like something wider then the stock tires on it now. 16" x3.75 is whats on it now and they just don't fill the fender.

Done. Now to just get them installed.

Just a heads up. I also tried the white wall paint before going with the inserts. Like you I painted them before mounting. However after having them mounted, much of the paint was stripped / damaged. If you read up on suggestions of many of the white wall paints, they recommend painting after installation with periodic touch ups if the tires are ridden. In the end I stripped off all the paint and went with the full white wall inserts.

Pwilke1, how long ago did you use the Fonzies? Did you use the suggested primer with it? Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately, I already bought a can which should arrive today..... They claim they have a new forumula with primer in it. I wonder if that will make a difference.
