^^ This. I don't much like whitewalls, but they look right on your truck.

**jocko** · 01-06-2012, 10:39 PM

blackwalls!

78bronzechariot · 01-06-2012, 10:40 PM

I vote whitewalls, but I am biased

bollybib · 01-07-2012, 12:30 AM

I like the redline idea.

Zoomin · 01-07-2012, 12:54 AM

I voted ww's, then noticed the split in voting was 7-5-7. I think that means it would look cool no matter what.

sanford66 · 01-07-2012, 01:45 AM

I voted white walls. They kind of fit the shop truck theme you have. Joseph

67chevy1series · 01-07-2012, 03:59 AM

white walls!

eightbanger · 01-07-2012, 08:16 AM

I like W.W's...BUT! IMHO they only look good on a lowered truck with the right kinda wheels (see 78bronzechariot) with yours at it's current ride height I would vote B.W's

I'm a blackwall guy. But the good news is it seems most of us agree that raised white letters suck!

big mike71 · 01-07-2012, 12:15 PM

I like the white walls. If you had the beauty rings on your wheels the black walls would look better.

lil hoodlum · 01-07-2012, 12:50 PM

I'm not the biggest fan of white walls on the 67-72s but yours is one of the few that I do like them on. Flat black/ black satin vehicles with red rims allways make me think of the rat rod look.

If you decide to not go with the white walls, would you keep the rims red or would you go a different color? I'm just thinking out load here but I think a cream or tan color rim would look good on your truck. The factory original white would also look good.

I usully don't like white walls on anything later than the early 60s but they look good on that truck, keep em.

ww's on that truck!

67ChevyRedneck · 01-07-2012, 11:07 PM

I love the WWs. She needs to come down a couple of inches too

Fastgreen350 · 01-07-2012, 11:28 PM

The ww's give it that old school look, but I like black walls especially on your truck gives it that bad a$$ look that says I mean business!! So either way its awesome looking, but black fo sho.

JRE · 01-08-2012, 12:29 AM

If it was my truck I'd lower it a little put the White walls on and run Salt flat disc's on the wheels

Hubscrub · 01-08-2012, 01:51 AM

No whites with black wheels or whites with red wheels. Either way in my opinion.

**specialtyretail** · 01-08-2012, 10:08 AM

What about white wheels with a really narrow red or blue pinstripe around the rim and blackwalls? Just an idea.
