Re: My 55

I enjoy seeing that truck. Whitewalls will add contrast but I'd have no issues driving it as is. KISS.

Re: My 55

"Should I get a setta' white wall tires, are you gonna cruise the miracle mile?"

It a line from a Billy Joel song.

I vote for the wide whites.

Re: My 55

If you're going white, go wide white.

But can you get quality radial tires with wide whitewalls?

Re: My 55

Hey Yeggie, if those tires have white letters on the inside, there is a tire shop in the Northgate area called Hooten Tires what will shave the black off to make them white walls. I've never seen shaved tires in person, but the pics on the internet look promising...
