Can I use a 120/90-18 front tire for a rear tire? Thanks.

No; not if it is designed to be used as a front tire. What is the make/model of the tire? Ed

I am trying to find a rear white wall. Found a front white wall tire that would fit, but I guess its not a good idea. Thanks for your input.

I'll go all black then. 120/90-18 ww are not made anymore as far as I can tell.

Maxxis used to make one several years ago, NOS is the only way now which is almost impossible unless you want to pay big money.
