love that wheel and tire combo, shame the whitewalls go brown. was looking at getting some for my beetle but maybe not......

**MiKe1_golf** · 04-03-2010, 12:54 PM

i know of some people who've had this type of white wall done and it's stayed white alot longer. front and rear tyres are different and the rears are browner than the front i think maybe the tyre type might have an impact. i dunno. might still be ok.

you can only get a genuine stripe white wall in 75 profile tyres from what i've seen. otherwise i'd just go for genuine ones.
