Thanks for the compliments...

Lynn, I am a wheel/tire junkie... I have many different sets that I like to alternate on the cars. It changes the appearance so much.. My Wife says "what another set of tires and wheels" quite often.... LOL....

I'm the same way...nothing changes the look of a car more than wheels and tires.

I like that you chose whitewalls. Very popular in the 1960s, but it seems nobody likes them anymore. Everyone wants white letters, redlines, or blackwalls. The whitewalls really "fit" on a mid-60s car - especially a full size.

A friend of mine has a 59 Corvette -- has wide whites ... would look like crap any other way ... TAZ

Thanks.. Yeah I really like the white walls rather than raised white letters or black walls.

It's old school cool!!! LOL
