white wall tires

[ikeone2007]

I have a 2002 shadow ace which i wanna put white wall tires on but the problem is the front tire is a 120/90-17 the smallest tire i can find is a 140/80- 17 ( 2sizes bigger) my hond a dealer tells me this can cause scrubbing and is reluctant to fit this tire. any suggestions please from anyone who has run acroos this problem?
please note i dont wanna paint a black wall as my painting skills arent too good lol

ask the tire manufacturer for the cicumference difference cuz the 140 has a smaller aspect ratio so circumference should be good. use a tape measure to check width. use the search button next time noob.

Did you try "coker" tire down south--they make alot of whitewalls,-now metric may be another story. hth:grin3:
