depends on whether or not you want to try to ride it.

if you was to just look at it, get 80's tyres.

if you want to ride it a bit, get somthing thatlooks like 80's tyres, but isnt cracked and fooked.

Those tyres from Alan's are pretty cheap.  Well, I want to have a go on it once and then just look at it in my front room for the next few years.  I had to get rid of my CBR600RR as my mum was scared and she found out I rode it at 168mph, and she got really upset, so I'd better not then go and break my neck on a BMX :)  Having it to look at will remind me of those school days in the early to mid 80s when BMXs were those most amazing thing ever!

Those other Aeros look nice.  Here is mine with those wheels on earlier.  The wheels, forks, brakes etc., were not fixed and literally balancing on bike - particularly the wheels with the short axles.  I had to keep my cat away as if he'd brushed past the bike, it would've collapsed in a big pile!!

 I quite like the seat post like that - but the tyres do look crap - want white wall and thin tyres i think -

Best get ready with your chequebook. I suspect you'll probably need a debt crisis specialist by the time you've got it the way you want it. Welcome to the slightly mental world of os bmx shopping...my advice is to get out now before you've even started on the cranks  ;D

Yeah, nothing like blowing a few hundred quid in the credit crunch on a BMX I'll never ride!!!  Starting to wish I'd gone for a better frame, too.
