Great question! I’m trying to make the same decision! Whitewalls are hard to find but I’m considering Hankook or Tiger Paw just because that’s about all there is. Leaning towards Hankook. I’m staying with steel wheels for now, 185 or 195-60 or 70. I have lowered the car about an inch, so I’m not sure how it will look. 

Maybe Alvin will chime in, he mentioned going with 70 series tires, I think he’s on this list. 

Peace,
Pat

Aesthetically I think=E2=80=A6

White walls for stock wheels & hubcaps.

Black walls (or RWL) for anything else.

I bought my white walls at Les Schwab quite a while back, but I =
don=E2=80=99t think they are available any more. Not a performance tire, =
