We are getting way off topic here, aren't we. But...

My truck was used in a wedding once but I only hauled the ushers and ringbearer. It was a beautiful wedding up in the mountains at a beautiful lodge. The bride rode in a carriage and I came at the end down the lane to the lodge.

But I did haul the seniors on the girls high school soccer team two years ago.

 

I'm leaning back to white walls. It attracts the lady's and will make the lodge look good at the lumber yard.

 

WHITE like these.

 

I've gotten more than my share of compliments from females on my proudly blackwalled truck. They seem to just like the curves, size, and rugged workingman looks of the driver. There is also a much lower maintance requirement than the WWs.

 

I'm not much of a whitewall type of guy. But, I think your truck looks really good with them. The color combination and signage with the whitewalls looks really good.

 

I am generally a whitewall guy.. And I'm not certain, when picking up ladies with our trucks, that extra high "load rating" should be the first consideration.

Pickup looks great, get a new set of WWW if you're asking me.

 

I think whitewalls are the tires that look best for your particular truck. I like whitewalls on any original looking truck with painted wheels. Save the blackwalls for rods and/or chrome wheels.

 

Did whitewalls come stock on these trucks? But on this truck they do it honorably
My vote is blackwall

 

Ha ha ha ha....I was referring to quantity in the load. Not per-unit size.
Like Abe has demonstrated above with photo proof. He managed to load nine without blowing out a sidewall.
Score 1.5 points for the appeal of blackwalls.

I went with RWL too. It all depends upon your preference.

 

Abe,

I may have to repaint my truck if that is the kind of response the Meadow Green is going to result in.

So far I have not been plagued by an over abundance of attraction from the fairest of the sexes.

 

I get lots of smiles when in mine but the wife rides shotgun....lol

 

OT: Pete, I like the look of your truck, reminds me of my F1 when I found it in 1975!

 

IMO, white wall tires look out of place on these trucks, because they didn't come with them originally. If people wanted white walls, they had to get them from a tire shop.

Wayne Carini of the Velocity channel TV show Chasing Classic Cars removes white walls from the classic prewar cars he buys, because most of these cars didn't come with them originally.

Another mistake people make is, they put 1" or 2" white walls on 1940's/50's vehicles. These width whitewalls were not available until the 1960's, and look awful on the earlier vehicles.

 

Bill what does Wayne know. The beast looks much better with white walls. Just my opinion.
