Re: White Walls or Black walls......that is the question.

Love the look of WW on AD's but in my case, my truck will be a daily driver and i've never been able to find any info on tire life. I'd hate to have to be replacing on a frequent basis, compared to black walls.

Also I have WW on my cruiser and they are a pain to keep clean! In fact the rear is a nice yellow right now.

But that's my take...if the life is comparable to standard Black Walls, I'd give them another look even if a pain to keep clean!

I am serious. You have a lot of really nice photo's, but, this one reminds me of a calendar shot. Similar to the Shell Superig calenders.

PM me with price details...

Parkwood used 215/60/15 front on 7" 3.5 BS and 235/60/15 rear 8" 4.0 BS
The first shot isnt aired, sitting about where ours would with a sids system. 2nd is aired out with the bling. Thoughts?



What brand wheel is the 7" 3.5 backspacing. I could use those on my ride.

Thanks!

Me too. BUT there are lots of things I truly admire that I just wouldn't put on my own ride. It's all personal. If it pleases you THATS what's important.
