What? That's cool and I was just wondering if that concept would work trying to build a sleeper but with performance tires...anything's possible I guess.

I have seen some high end builds in Street Rodder that have these white wall wheels. Very Kool

If you can paint 'em white, I don't see why you couldn't paint (or powder-coat) 'em black. New performance with old-school looks and attitude. This is definitely my New Favorite Idea of the Day!

I like! The look of a white wall with the performance of a low profile tire.

Kindig-it designs did that with Apollo Ohno's Caddy.

thats a 20" wheel that looks like a 15" after paint

I'm afraid I'm old enough to remember these. We had something like it on our new '49 Ford. They were made of some type of plastic that went on like a hub cap that clipped onto the outer edge of the wheel. White wall tires were very expensive after WW II, and this was a way to get the look without the expense.

I've been wondering why someone didn't do this for years now.
