Opinions on white walls mounted to Iron cross wheels?

Finally after a long winter break. The T-top is purring like a kitten. Issue was 4 shattered spark plugs. Re-used the plugs from the head gasket blow out.

Anyway lurking around for a new set of tires I found a set of vogue Champiro tires that are 195/75/r14 with a 2" white wall. My car is the royal blue/ silver two tone. I thought 308.00 was a good price and would look different. Or would this be a mess.

Oh here's the tire. The t-top is purely a cruiser now so take that in mind.

mmm IMHO white walls are typically for 1930's, etc cars. I seem to recall an old school Japanese car that had white walls that looked good.... don't remember what it was but it obviously wasn't mind blowing....

I found the Bf t/a white letters in the 205/70/r14 So ill just go back to the 83 mags. Just a thought a lot of zx's are turning up to my shows. I like to change it up a bit. Did see a crazy 240 with a insane Baja styled tube bumper with off road lamps. That was sick and one of a kind!

You could pull it off if you had two tone with white or a white stripe down the side. White wall stripes say 70's passenger car to me.. Also you have to keep them scrubbed to keep them white.
