Add on white walls for tires?

Anyone know where I can get white walls that folks used to install by placing them in the tire bead. I seen an ad in ebay a while back for some new ones (teflon/plastic) but cant seem to find them again???? Thanks

For other sources and some very good discussion regarding the use of portawalls and how well they hold up and look, use the "search" function at the top of the page. Just enter "portawalls".

Portawalls suck.They are to be used only with bias ply tires.I have seen them fly off on the highway.You could just paint the walls white.Clean them about 5-10 times and then just paint them.I have done that more than a few times.Works great.Or you could get a nice set of WWW tires for about $400 and be good to go.
