Projects Model A truck tire poll, white walls or black walls?

This is my Model A truck I built. Here is the build thread here on it:

http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=540287

I want to lower the front end a little bit and was going to replace the 6.00-16's on the front with 5.00-16's. But first I thought I would use what I have to save some cash. I have 4) 7.10-15's that lower the truck 1/2" up front. I am going to mount them on 50 Merc rims. Should I use Black wall or White wall? The truck is a 50's style build. 42 Merc flathead, 39 trans 40 banjo rear, I use it to push my Fiat drag car.

A: white walls


B: black walls


C: no hubcap black walls

 

white

 

I like the whitewalls on that pickup, looks great btw... you should add a poll to this thread.

 

Looks good all ways. How about ww with hubcap shown? I'm just a hubcap/whitewall kind of guy.

I like the red oxide too.

Don

 

white walls all the way

 

Thanks, It was primed in 1962. I don't have hubcaps that fit the www's.

 

Blackwalls absolutely! Whitewalls? That's custom guy stuff...

 

Unless you're going to do fancy paint, I'd do blackwalls.

 

Will look GREAT either way........love the truck.

 

White walls with some sort of cap.

 

Blackwalls on a truck, always...imo.

 

Black walls with caps.

 

Blackwalls period. Caps either way is good

 

i like the www look

 

whitewall, no cub caps

 

White

 

I like the black, no caps....

 

i like the WWW's on this truck.

 

blackwalls

 

black with caps. neat and clean!

 

I like it both ways, but gotta have caps either way. If there's no option of hubcaps with the wide whites, then I'll say blackwalls with caps.

 

Trucks are supposed to have blackwalls in my opinion. I dig the hubcaps on it myself, kinda finishes off the look with the fenders.

 

Black walls with caps looks "finished". I'm not much of a fan of white walls, especially on a truck. Kind off loses the all business look that suits it, just like the Fiat.

 

50's style>>> means Whitewalls!

 

Black no caps

 

I'm a ******** whitewall guy but on that truck I have to say black walls with caps - it looks the business with black walls....

 

^^What he said. Black walls with caps.^^

 

I vote black no caps. If you freshened up the paint job then I would say with caps.
Truck looks great how it is though.

 

I say black with caps!

 

Black walls with caps. The truck is wayyyyyyyyyyy cool, but it is a truck. Us working guys just don't wear white Buck shoes.
