White walls/Blackwalls
Re: Peoples opinions of whitewalls;
I am running ancient black wall bias tires ( their days are numbered) I was
forced to mount my spare which is a 1" white wall. I like the looks of it on
the wire wheels against the red body. My replacements will be white walls.
I was interested to read your take on the 155 78 13's. About a year ago this
thread was discussed here, 165 80 & 175 70's were mentioned frequently.
compared to the no load circumferance of 72.25" of a 6.00 13 the 155 80 is
1.1% less and the 165 80 is 1.7% greater. I think I''II go with the 155 80"s,
Wow think of the increase in acceleration.
