sava MC22 or CST 6017 are the only matched pairs that I know of. both would come from Germany.

you could potentially run a shinko on the rear and a prima 100/90 up front if you wanted to mix and match. there are other combos as well, but the most direct and easiest option would be one of those sets.

Have you thought about chrome rims? Seems a natural with the whitewalls and brown trim.

Or whitewall rings on any tires you like, if you are only going for the look.

I'd caution on using whitewall rings on tubeless tires. The ring seats where the tire beads and it could impact that tire's ability to hold air. I'd recommend actual whitewalls for the look unless one is running a tube-type tire.

You could put tubes in tubeless tires and then put those rings on them though.
