If you can, please, do it. I don't have whitewalls, but I write to the
finnish "Mobilisti" magazine, and all this is very important for safety.

Well, you have seen nothing yet. In Finland Talbot Horizon was put together
for several years. There was a time when some of these were turned (for
practical taxing reasons) to use "petrol", which is a fuel between kerosine
and normal motor gas/benzine/petrol. It has octane rate of about 60-70, and
it is normally used in old marine or agricultural engines.
If you call normal Horizon a dog, this is something which is a decade worse.
I quess one or two survived for historical reasons.
