Good point, you see the wide whites and then you see the truck around them instead of seeing one complete truck.
The onlooker should think "WOW nice truck" then dissect what he/she sees piece by piece rather than saying "Whoo look at those whitewalls" and then looking to see what they are on. That should go for any component you put on your truck. Think of the last time you saw a truck with a wild flame job at a show. You still remember every detail of the flames but probably can't remember much about the rest of the truck without stopping to think about it for a minute.
The super widewhites work with over restored trucks with every extra piece of factory chrome and stainless plus a sunvisor on them and maybe a two tone paint job where there is enough extra stuff to draw your attention that they don't dominate the truck.

48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
