  4. There is a place at the top of the forum where you can introduce yourself and what your all about.

    Diamond Back Radials vulcanizes a white wall onto the tires they sell. They are in NC between Charlotte and I-95. I haven't heard of anyone in ATL that would do what your asking about. You might be on your own for sanding them. Let us know if you find anyone.

    This is pretty easy to do yourself. Use small wheel (3" 50 grit) to rough out, then a finishing wheel. Practice on a junk tire till you get the hang of it. DO NOT do something goofy like leaving the tires on, jacking up the rear and running 'em no matter what YouTube says. There's a bunch of threads here on the subject.

    I have a machine that I bought in ATll that does this. It works pretty good. You can do it on the car with a grinder. Go to harbor freight and get the corral looking discs they direct the rubber out and don't clog the sanding surface

    I need a better air compressor for the machine to work properly. I have done a few. You cannot do new tires. They have a lot of oil in them and will brown. I also have the chemicals to lay whiter on them if they do brown. I'm still learning. I do have a set of g78 bias plys I would sell or trade for sbc parts
