Default White Sidewalls for the tC

I'm thinking white sidewalls might look good on the tC. Does anyone know where to get them?

Why would you want that? Maybe you should look into an old school Buick or something. I don't think I've ever seen white wall lo pro tires.

There was an ad in the November issue of Sport Compact Car for the tC which displays a white tC with white wall tires. I know there is a whitewalltires.com that may have something, but I don't really know.

those things get dirty easily, I think they only look good on old school cars/show cars.

You've given me another marvelous idea! How about these wheels from a 1927 Buick? The spokes are solid hickory.

www.coker.com

Also, There's black diamond that make a radial whitewall. Can't think of their site name, though
You may want to search ebay for somethings called portawalls, or port-a-walls. These are inserted between the rim and the bead and make yer meat look like whitewalls at a fraction of the price.
I like your idea. I think it would look really unique. I'm glad there are guys thinkin outside the tuner box
