tire colour?
does anyone know any way to change the colour of a tire? i know you could paint it but i would imagine that would wear away very quickly. so is there some form of rubber die? -- ntappin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ntappin's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/10800 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45331 |

Rit fabric dye should work because it works with urethane skateboard wheels, but dont think you can dye something thats already black... -- DK *\"faster, faster until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.\" - hunter s. thompson* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DK's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/8054 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45331 |

well if i were to die something i would start with a white base most likely as it would show the colour best. -- ntappin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ntappin's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/10800 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45331 |

I dont think it's a good idea to paint a black tire.. anyways.. whaT's having your tire another colour then red gonna cahnge something in Muni or trials or street ? and if it's for freestyle then you can get different colors. -- maxisback ------------------------------------------------------------------------ maxisback's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/10885 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45331 |

What color do you intend to make it. Cause you can find most colors, unless you are making it multi-colored. That would rock. -- koebwil ------------------------------------------------------------------------ koebwil's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11308 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45331 |

Just spray paint the entire uni. Like the ghetto BMXers used to do "back in the da"y. Of course I wasn´t even bourne when "back in the day" was, but well well. -- fexnix '*My fresh gallery*' (http://gallery.unicyclist.com/Fexnix-album) *I Got Infinite Skillz* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ fexnix's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/7381 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45331 |

Assuming your tire is 20 inch, you could always try to find vintage BMX tires from the 80's. We had every color imaginable in those days, even pink and purple! Do a search on Ebay, for "old school BMX". What color do you want? -- wheeliemaster ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wheeliemaster's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/10962 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45331 |

i would like to take a white primo tire and paint the triangles on it so that it comes out looking like a jagged mouth sort of like this, actualy exactly unless i can figure out a better way of doing it.

Whatever you use it has to penetrate the tire fairly deeply, or else you will have to reapply every 3 hours. -- TheObieOne3226 'SWAT Gallery' (http://gallery.unicyclist.com/SWAT) 'SWAT webpage' (singlewheeledattackteam.1hwy.com) 'Arrow Racing' (http://www.arrowracing.com/) 'Sixsixone' (http://www.sixsixone.com) \"obie is definately a trend setter, i got in to unicycling because of him, and came here because of him\" - kj-52 \"try not to annoy the great obie, for he is better than us.\" - murde mental *disclaimer: the above message was not intended to offend anyone. if you are offended i can take no responsibility for my actions because i don't feel like it. also you are reading an internet newsgroup where not everyone will share your same views and beliefs, be able to take criticism and post/read threads at your own risk.* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TheObieOne3226's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/4851 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/45331 |
