Depends on the car.
My TC had whites, my thunderbirds have a strange combo of 3/8" red and 1" white (these are org tires from the 60's) my stang, LSC and the Healy have blackwalls and my van has RWL (rased white letters).

I could never see the Healy, LSC or stang with whites, maybe RWL on the stang.

Van could swing either way :eek:

Thunderbirds used to have 2 1/2" wide whites till i found the orginals but they could have been ordered with black walls but would look really wierd.

Current Stable:
00 Stang vert - side pipes, super chip, CAI
98 LSC
96 Haulmark enclosed race trailer (going to eBay soon)
94 E-150 5.8l
65 T-Bird Coupe
65 T-Bird vert
64 Austin Healy 3000

Gone but not forgott'n:
95 Gen I Base
92 Merc Grand Marq -Police package...sigh
90 TC
85 T-Tbird Fila

I say if it's boxy at all it hould have whitewalls or white letters.
but if it's aerodynamic like a Mark VIII, it should have blackwalls.
I've seen a Mark VIII with whitwalls and it looked AWFUL!!

whitewalls look better on a big car! i have a cadillac eldorado, and a lincoln towncar, they both have whitewalls as does my truck. i just think they look better!
NEW SUBJECT:
thick whitewalls or 1' whitewalls

I agree it depends on the car. Also, I think it depends on the wheels too. I could see a Mark 7 with 100 spoke 16's with white walls... It depends on how you do the car up. And for the new topic, if you're gunna have white walls, go all out!!! I plan on putting wide whitewalls on my T/C when I replace them this summer!

I totally posted in the other thread that it TOTALLY depends on the person and the car. What style are you trying to convey?
