what would be a good match for the shinko Classic 240 Whitewall on the rear I am looking for something in a white wall for the front also that will match the tread pattern, I don't want a newer looking tire. I am trying to find something in the right time frame, as the rear, it is going on a xs650 with the stock 100/90/19" front wheel. Thank yous

The Shinko 240, as you know, is only offered in 16". To match it you'll probably have to buy a firestone replica from Coker. I think they cost about double what the shinko does.

you can get a firestone replica from coker for a little more than $100 for the front. It isn't WW though.

Coker does have his own vintagr looking tires that are WW but they are $$$.

That is what I was afraid of the shinko price is right and I want the white wall up front also, so I guess the money I save on the rear is going into the front. thank yous
