Whitewalls!
A lot of people like them, some like them enough to shell out large sums of money on them  Shocked the more frugal among us will spring for the white-lines.
After seeing some old 4WD tyres, the ones with the massive white lettering, and how they turn to scabby whitewalls over time I did some searching. Sure enough there are blokes out there that are turning raised letter tyres into "poor-man's" white walls.
So I got to thinking, if the raised letters are hiding white-walls, what about white-line tyres?
Here it is, I took to an old white-line I had down the back with a knife and sliced off a millimetre or less of black rubber, hmmmmmm


Here's one video, I saw another where the guy jacked up his hot-rod, put it gear with motor running, I guess it make for a smoother finish.
