    Look real nice. Don't mean to highjack the post need some help. Can any photoshop the rims only an old english white colour? These are pretty much the rims i have and how they would look, just minus a bullet on the cap. I'm still toying if the body colour or black. All depends on how the WW looks on the rim. If not is there a thread going where i could get it done?

    Cheers Dan

    What you end up with, depends a lot on what is under the black. Some I've done looked crappy and others real nice.

    You can see the one on the right where the whitewall doesn't quite meet at 2 o'clock. This will happen most often on white lettered tires and not whitewalls.

    Some of them, the white goes nearly to the rim edge and others don't.

    So which tire is the best to buy and shave? A raised white letter or a plane white line tire?

    Neither! Buy the real thing!
     
  8. White stripes are a better bet because some white letter tires may not go all the way around.

    Way to resurrect a thread! :D
