I dunno, but when you get them on, shoot me a picture of the back wheel after a few hundred miles of oil slinging..!

I looked into them a while ago.  They tend not to seat and sit well on a motorcycle tire, eventually flapping off.  Maybe not so bad on a car but a really bad idea on a bike.  From all I could read they're great if your bike just sits there but if you're going to ride it don't use them.

Yeah its either paint them, or run a mismatch set.

Coker carry 18's for stupid money, Avon venom are 19's
I think shinko do either or, but not both.
Vee rubber do18's too
