I think Bone C is talking about the flaps not the whole tyre that's why the price difference

Not cheap at all, the thought of $20-$30 got me excited damn it!
No spare then!
what are the slip ons? flaps?
Is that something you attach to the tyre?

There the paint on whitewalls (latex stuff) I've got them on my KG. They look sweet.
the slip on ones you let the tyre down a lil then put it inside between the rim and tyre then inflate back up 🙂

so for 20-30 bucks it does the job? You have it on your kg, then it's good enough for me.
Is it stuck on or 'painted' on.
Think I'll get down there and check them out.
Where is that, I can't tell where that numbers is?
dunno where that is 🙁 i do know how ever that the slip on ones cost my brother $130 for all 4 on his EH 🙂 i hope that helps

The ones Pete is talking about is a thin line on your tyre, which is usually different to whitewalls. Flaps, or whitewall inserts, are usually about $130 a set, and vary in sizes.
I am looking for 16" flaps.. Not good chances.🙁
THE LOWEST WITH THE MOSTEST BLING BLING WINS!!
i got "Atlas" inserts on my bug about $130 from classicvw
