Default Anyone mount their tires "white letters in"?

Someone here (The Andies?) owns a Warbonnet Yellow convertible and it looks great. Not sure how it would look on my Dark Blue '79.

Anyone have pictures of their C3 with their tires "Blackwalled?

Not here. I've always liked the white letters out.
Adds a little "action" to the tires and wheels. Gotta keep them clean though...dingy letters look like :U

To each his own :D

WHen I bought my Vette 6 years ago I got news tires and the tire guy says
"Black walls out, right ?" and I told him to put the white letters out, and I'll wait until that look comes back in style.

Seem like a fad kind of thing to me :D

My preference is NOT to show the RWL.....looks cleaner and meaner.

Motorhead...RWLs out must be a Canadian thing because blackwalls ARE the style where I'm at.
