    Where's the choice for white letter?

    Otherwise, get some real rubber. 16" at least.

        of those choices? whitewalls all the way.

        Yellow and red lines are meant to be OEM on cars that are VERY different from a grand marq. The red lines (there are radial red lines available, weird picture choice aside) especially will just look like you don't know your musclecar history.

        but if you're looking for cornering ability and wet-weather grip, you gotta go blackwalls because they just don't sell whitewalls (even ones where the whitewalls are added on) tires that are 100% modern technology.

          HPPs look best with blackwalls. I saw an aero GM yesterday with HPPs and thin stripe WWs and IMHO it just didn't look right.
