Making your own WHITE WALLS??

[Deuce26]

Anyone ever tried this?? Recommendations on Grinding down the sidewall.. or Painting the sidewall?? I could use some tips on which way to go.. Or do I just break down and buy wide whites?

I had a friend that did it on a roadmaster sedan. Looked good from a distance, but crap close up. Took a ton of work.

If your building something nice then buy them. Grinding or painting dosen't look even close in quality to actual whitewall tires.

i did it and i learned to only do it on white letter tires they have more white under all the black than skinny whites just my experience other tires may be different i put my truck on jackstands and put it in reverse and held my angle grinder against the tire its alot of work but mine turned out pretty good just be patient

About ten years ago you couldn't give a wide white away.. So I guess that's why I refuse to pay Corey Corker or anyone $200 for a regular radial tire..

Just my rant on them.. I think skinny whites look just as good and 1/4 of the price!!

i used to own/collect studebakers. many of them had the "add on" white walls. not horrible looking, but then again...

Thanks for the info guys. Last night I decided to go and buy some Krylon Fusion white gloss paint and see what happens...Didn't turn out to bad, just not sure how long it is gonna hold up...

Here is the results

Here's a good read, Cheap Wide Whitewalls (revisited) using "White Tire Paint". The raised lettering from the tire script is the giveaway with your tires.
