Why a yellow stripe?
A yellow stripe is a bold, high contrast choice that stands out against the white sidewall. It pairs especially well with gold or chrome wheels, candy and yellow paint, and black and yellow color schemes. If you want a different color, see our gold, red and blue stripe options in the 26 inch white wall tire collection.
Wheel and fitment guide
- Wheel width: a 255 mm tire generally suits wheels about 9 to 10 inches wide. Confirm the exact range for your wheel.
- Check clearance first: verify wheel offset, hub bore, brake caliper clearance and suspension clearance before ordering. We recommend professional fitment for any 26 inch ultra low profile setup.
- Common builds: 26 inch wheels are an aftermarket upgrade on all of these.
- Donk and classic platforms: Chevrolet Impala, Caprice (Box Chevy), Monte Carlo and Buick full-size models
- SUVs: Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, GMC Yukon Denali and Lincoln Navigator
- Sedans: Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Cadillac DeVille and DTS

Important: ultra low profile tires
With only about 3 inches of sidewall, this tire gives you very little cushioning. It’s best for show events, boulevard cruising and smooth pavement, ideally with upgraded suspension. If your car will be driven daily on rough roads or potholes, a taller sidewall is the safer choice. The tread is all-season, but an ultra low profile tire isn’t a substitute for a winter tire in snow or ice.
Pairs best with
- Gold or chrome 26 inch wire wheels, the classic donk look
- Forged chrome wheels from our Forgiato custom builds
- Gold or two-tone Dayton wire wheels
Ask about a complete wheel and tire package to get both shipped together.
Care tips
- Wash with mild soap, water and a soft brush after each drive, and dry with a clean microfiber cloth.
- Avoid acidic, abrasive or solvent-based cleaners on the white rubber and the stripe.
- Keep petroleum based tire dressings and silicone sprays off the white sidewall, since they can discolor it.
- Check tire pressure monthly and follow the correct pressure for your setup.
