Where do y'all find those fat tires :?:

 

[tnt1]

the 24x3 you can get them about any bike shop g/l Tony

 

[HornetB]

Choppersus.com has a selection of 24"x3"

More here: http://www.bicycledesigner.com/partsmai ... Type=tires

But they are relatively common and a range of brands, Kenda, Shwabbe (sp??) etc.

The Felt thick brick white walls are available from some place in Canada that sells low rider and chopper stuff but I can't remember the website, sorry. They were about $55 each :shock:

 

[Mr. Farrell]

the canadian site is http://www.chainganglowrider.com

and it's Schwalbe.

Great. Thanks! I picked up a trike on craigslist for 25 bucks. Not quite sure what I'm gonna do with it yet.

Now do you need special 24x3 rims to put those tires on?

Short answer no. Long answer- Some of the older bikes may have odd tire/wheel combos. If the tire size currently has a decimal in the width portion, 24x1.75, you should be fine. If it is in fraction, then you need to source new rims.
