I love the way wide whites look on pre 47 Chevy trucks.. but the 'beigewall' syndrome is what keeps me from pulling the trigger on a set.

The most recent copy of Hemmings Classic Car I picked up has an ad for an outfit called Lucas Automotive that claims they have 'the best vintage tire deals since 1957'. 1-800-735-0166 and wide white radials appears to be their thing. It's a full page ad, but no website address.. but they say you can call and request a free catalog or quote.

They also appear to sell trade-in's & warehouse clearouts.. and they sell Goodyear Radial wide whites, which they claim are the only wide white made in the U.S.A.


an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.
