Poor effort... I thought a chav was more likely to just white-wall the whole sides of the tyres white. You've just put a few dots on! Wink Laughing

Laughing Laughing This is true, I guess my benefits wouldn't stretch to the cost of probably needing a second pen to do the whole wall Laughing

Reminds me of when I did similar to the Yokohama tyres on my old car. It looked quite good until I parked on a kerb.

I first spotted a bike at squires cafe last with his tread painted in a few colours which looked great so I ordered red and white pens from eBay and filled the groves in mine Wink It looks great now.

There's some really fancy tyre pens that you can also buy but the cheaper ones are just as good personally, Unless you want glowing or reflective...

Google tyre penz or image search ...

Out of interest, how many handjobs are you expecting to get out of this?

Many... Only had to give 3 too! Everyone's a winner Laughing

Update:
Rode them in the rain and dirt about 16 hours after painting them and the flex of the rubber mixed with the water did make a few small spots crack or come off. Still looked great but I touched them up again anyway Laughing
