"Just Curious" won't cost you money, but buying these will.  There are high
quality replica Cobra wheels for the Tiger that bolt on, and an option for their
knock-off system.  Very dear.

You could use the Alpine wire wheels, but they would last about one burn-out.

VB offered a set, but NEVER buy ANYTHING from VB.

Wire wheels by Dayton can be used, but these are costly as well, but strong.

There are Minilites that you could use, if you don't mind 10" wheels.

Take another look at the Panasports <http://www.panasport.com>, they are nice 
and
come in 14 and 15 inch sizes for the Tiger.
