found source for 120/70-21 whitewalls - metzeler 1 Year ago  
just got my metzeler 880 from here - http://www.dbtires.com/

they vulcanized the ww on, so it aint going anywhere, not the cheapest (340.00) - but at least no need to run the crap vee rubber leaking yellow whitewall garbage lol and no more stretching a 90 on a 3.00 rim

sorry if this was posted before, don't recall seeing a post about these.
