    You can put white walls on the drivers side and black walls on the passenger :D you can only see one side at a time anyway, best of both worlds. Ok your right stupid idea

  7. Very nice loookin car...I would go with blacks. I know you said beige, but a maroon or burgandy painted 40 Ford wheel would look killer. The black tire and dark wheel give it a little attitude. You could also use a dark blue to be a little different.

    I am keeping the fenders, I have them so why not. I too like blackwalls better on a highboy and whites on full fendered cars.

    I personally like Whitewalls on post war 15" steelies on cars with fenders...
    Blackwalls on fenderless cars.

    Wheel color is up to you... I like black with blackwalls...
    But other than that, it doesn't really matter to me on a well thought out car.

    Blackwalls make a car look tough...down and dirty...
    Whitewalls look upscale and classy...

    paint the wheels copper. it'll look good with either tires. personally, i'd go whitewalls. i'm a whitewall kinda guy. :D
    if you're tight on money, blackwalls with the wheels copper will still look good.

    Ideally have both mounted on wheels to alternate appearance.
