What looks better?? May 19, 2009, 11:34:02 AM Need some input. Its a silver 86 XR7. I have a set of 10 hole rims that I am going to put on and am undecided between blackwall or raised white letter. Is there someway to search pictures on this site, I kept refreshing to change the banner but havent found pics of what I am looking for. Thanks Quote Selected

What looks better?? Reply #2 – May 19, 2009, 02:34:27 PM That sir is a very opinionated question? Pick what you like and stick with it. I like both but with the right wheel/tire combo the raised whites look so nice. Also might have something to do with the fact that when I was a kid all sports cars had raised whites or so it seemed!Stuckman Quote Selected

What looks better?? Reply #4 – May 19, 2009, 03:10:59 PM How dark or light is the color of the car? I know you said silver, but the shade may have an impact as well. For a lighter shade I'd personally go RWL.Ultimately it's a matter of what YOU prefer. Quote Selected

What looks better?? Reply #13 – May 20, 2009, 10:02:53 AM I used to have RWL tires on the 8 holes that were on the car. I have Snowflakes now and I kinda like the way the car looks with the black walls and Snowflakes better. I think RWL tires look better on 4-eyes though. Quote Selected
What looks better?? Reply #14 – May 20, 2009, 02:23:39 PM Wow, after seeing the direct comparison on Lou's car (thunderjet302), I feel I can safely say without fear of contradiction, "Either one would look great!!". Quote Selected
