275/25R26 White Wall Tire for 26 Inch Donk and Show Car Wheels
The 275/25R26 white wall tire is a handmade, ultra low profile tire for 26 inch wheels, built with a true white rubber sidewall. It’s a classic 26 inch donk and slab tire: at 275 mm wide with a 25-series sidewall, it leaves only about 69 mm (2.7 inches) of white rubber between your wheel and the road, so the wheel dominates the look.
The white isn’t paint, a coating or a surface treatment. It’s part of the tire’s rubber, so there’s no paint layer to chip or peel. Every tire is handmade in the USA and built to order. Browse all 26 inch white wall tires.

True white vs painted white walls
Not every white wall is the same. When you’re comparing, look for:
- How the white is made. Genuine white rubber is part of the tire’s construction. Painted or coated sidewalls are a layer on top.
- Wear and chipping. A painted layer can scuff, chip or peel with curb contact and cleaning. White rubber has no separate coating.
- Cleaning. White rubber can be scrubbed gently with mild soap and a soft brush. Avoid harsh solvents on any white wall.
Our true white wall tires are made to order in the USA, with the white built into the tire.
