    where the whitewall doesn't sit so close to the rim edge? most of the ones I see are so close to the rim edge that the whitewall effect is almost lost. I'd like to find one where the white stripe is at least three inches away from the edge when mounted. I'd also like to find it in a 195/60 15 inch tire.....?

    195/60 R15 is an odd size, especially if you're looking for a whitewall. Also, with a tire that small, placing the stripe "three inches" away from the wheel will put it so damn close to the tread that you'll probably lose the effect anyway.

    What car are you putting these custom tires on?
