Which is also no clear from the term "wheel liners". I was thinking of the stuff ice racers line the wheels with...

I'll admit it, I first thought is was a retro thing to add white sidewalls to the tire.

And smooth Moonies, man. If the hipsters going drag everything out , again, the gotta have white sidewalls and moonies.

I hear that they have carbs with two venturies now - DOUBLE-BARREL CARBURETORS! What'll they think of next......?

Shoot, now it looks like I'll have to sell my dual Holley 94 setup. I hate hipsters.
Or maybe... I'm slowly becoming one. Maybe I am right now. I own flannel shirts, I ride a fix gear from time to time, I am a coffee snob, I have a volvo 240. Oh crap, I am a hipster!

Stock Xr front wheel liners are either brittle as plate glass, or unobtanium.
