In the movie, Dr. No, James Bond drove a Sunbeam (I think a Series III),
with wire wheels and whitewall tires. The white part of the tires was
oversize (probably about a 4" or 5" width). I did find some tires like
these these that would fit an Alpine, but the price was out of sight.
Many years ago, tire stores offered add-on white walls. These fit between
the tire and the rim, and were probably glued on the outside edge. I
haven't seen them in years, and nobody in my part of the world (Alberta
Canada), knows where to find them. Anyone know where to find them?
