Barabbas Posted August 16, 2014 Report Posted August 16, 2014 We already have a "show your tools/engine"--How about showing your Baby's shoes Here Doris with her 205/75-15 Diamondbacks on Wheel Vintiques Hot Rod Rally Wheels painted mellow yellow and Baby Moons 3 Quote
rusty_apache Posted August 16, 2014 Report Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) I put wide whitewalls on just about EVERYTHING! Ralph has gum dipped Deluxe Champion Firestones with the pie crust sidewalls. I have this urge to set aside the full wheel covers for some Concord dog dishes and ribbed beauty rims. It's nice to know what he would look like repainted, since that's a long way off. Edited August 18, 2014 by rusty_apache 2 Quote
Don Coatney Posted August 16, 2014 Report Posted August 16, 2014 Here you go. The wheel I get to play with the most. I have liked chrome wheels all my life. 3 Quote
Merle Coggins Posted August 16, 2014 Report Posted August 16, 2014 Don likes to leave his nuts exposed. My nuts were exposed for a while last month too when one of my hub caps left me on I-94 in Michigan. 1 Quote
Don Coatney Posted August 16, 2014 Report Posted August 16, 2014 On occasion I have been called a loose nut. 1 Quote
casper50 Posted August 16, 2014 Report Posted August 16, 2014 better a nut loose than a loose cannon. Way too much trouble to get into and cause with that. Quote
mrwrstory Posted August 16, 2014 Report Posted August 16, 2014 Just be sure that loose nut is not behind the steering wheel! 2 Quote

Don Coatney Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 Hay, I had some wheel time in that car Quote
Smokeybear Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 Stock wheels on the front Wheels I widened to 8" on the back Both with home ground white walls. 1 Quote
Barabbas Posted August 17, 2014 Author Report Posted August 17, 2014 Looks very mean--how do you "home grow" white walls and what's under the hood? I don't think my 230 could turn 8" wide tires Quote
dlrides Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 White letter tires, then grind the black layer off. Quote
Smokeybear Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 Looks very mean--how do you "home grow" white walls and what's under the hood? I don't think my 230 could turn 8" wide tires As dlrider said, white letter tires that I used a grinder on. I have the original 218 and three on the tree. It runs just fine. Quote
Barabbas Posted August 17, 2014 Author Report Posted August 17, 2014 Sounds like a process that requires a steady hand, patience and a good mask Quote
Don Coatney Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 Do those wide rear tires rub the fenders? Quote
Don Coatney Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 I believe most all tires (white letter or otherwise) have white wall buried within. Quote
Smokeybear Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 Do those wide rear tires rub the fenders? Nope, Somehow I measured exactly and got them to fit without rubbing. They are very close though. I've got about 3/4 of an inch in either direction. Quote
Smokeybear Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 I believe most all tires (white letter or otherwise) have white wall buried within. Whitewalls and white letters do but blackwalls don't. Quote
plyroadking Posted August 18, 2014 Report Posted August 18, 2014 As my neighbor tell me, "every tire has white underneath the black, you just have to go deep enough" i dont think so, but what do i know, i just work at a tire factory 1 1 Quote
