Think about this one for a moment or two.
Call me crazy, but at some point in the future, my Grigio Moda (dark gray metallic) Classica (which I don't even own yet) will need replacement tires. I've not researched them, but assuming a reputable tire could be obtained in the 195/50vr16 size that the Classica is fitted with, what would you think about a white wall tire? For me, this car is more about class and style than performance. A "gentleman's roadster"
is how I refer to it with friends and family. White walls would have been used on some '60s Brit and Italian 2-seat sports cars, weren't they? (The attached photo is of a bias ply Firestone from a Google image search, not sized or specified for the modern cars, but it shows the type of stripe I'm referring to.)
Hmmm, white walls on a modern 124...
