Hi all, been thinking of putting a set of full whitewalls on my bus, or even the inserts? (Are they any good? And how do they actually fit?) has anyone got any pictures of white westys with full whitewalls?

Cheers, Brett.

Atlas 2.5"x15" on both.
I might have some ATLAS white wall inserts coming in too, along with hubcap beauty rings and Big logo hubcaps (already listed here) both in 14" & 15", sometime soon.

here is a video on how to fit the white wall inserts / port-a-walls

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSIKixEAbow" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Here is the summary for those who dont have time to have a look at the video:

Break the bead - clean the hell out of the tire - install the portawall while slowly inflating . Use a rubber mallet (you can even use "wooden mallet") to get it to sit flat on the tire and be centered. If its not sitting right, let the air out and keep working it. Once you get it inflated and drive it a little, check to make sure they are still centered and if needed, deflate - beat on it with the rubber mallet and reinflate.

PS: let me know if the video link doesn't work.

These are cool mate, had a look at the site in German (Google Translate did a rubbish job!) Am i right in thinking they cost about 130euros?

Do they just push on over the rim/tyre then the beauty ring secures them?

I did absolutely everything I could to try to get these to sit without wrinkles. I had to ditch the inserts and just use the rings. I was really disappointed.

I had no problems at all .... you need to fit them with the wheel flat on the floor and not while it is on the van

Thread revival!!...
Just wondering how deep those are?
I've been on the website and there's various options.
Thanks!
