    I feel the same way

    See! I’m not the only one who despises whitewalls :D

    Just for some proper hot rod balance, my RPU without whitewalls ;) :D

  13. I have a set for mine, just need to gather up some steel wheels. I have been gathering parts to rebuild it in a more traditional style.

  16. I like T's with whitewalls & without, Larry's roadster PU is the cats pajamas's as far as I'm concerned. HRP

    Love the look of wide white walls but they look out of place on a car newer than 1960.

    They're OK, never with a white wheel though.

    Too much white. Would be better with dark or chrome wheels, imo.

    I believe the original poster asked who likes them, not who doesn't

    To the blackwall crow.
    Its must be something terrible wrong in all my magasines.
    All the cars from 52-62 have whitewalls and they still call
    them hotrods.
