Looking back at many of the original articles about the Alpine, it seems that a large number, if not the majority, of featured cars had white walls. Up to and including S III, these were all (in the articles I looked at) the wide (2") variety, while the S IV articles, both Alpine and Tiger, if they had them, shows cars with only the 1" variety. I seem to remember that some of the earlier Alpine advertising featured cars with the 2" white walls.
