    Alas, many of you may frown upon my decision to put raised whites on my luxo-liner instead of white walls, but my mind is pretty much made up.

    I'm after pics of full-sized Buicks wearing 5x5 rallys and raised white lettered tires. I want to make sure 100% this is the look I want before I buy tires. Thanks.

    Here's an old pic of my fiirst Buick with a fresh set of Goodyear Eagle STs. I though it looked fine, but then that was the '80's....I'm not keen on the look thirty years later.

    He asked for Rallye wheels, otherwise I have a lot more photos from full size Buicks with RWL tyres :TU:
    The Buick Rallye wheels are not really popular in Europe, they remind people too much of 70's [​IMG] Opel rims.

    I thought it was relavent since both our cars are big, yellow, and have 4 doors. :TU:

    Does anyone here have a set of ribbed caps (like on the '66 Cat in the first pic) they'd be willing to part with? I know they aren't right for my Electra but I really like them.

    Call them. The Wildcat that they have for sale in the pic section (page 2 especially) is in the yard now and it has the rallye wheels with caps. Beautiful car back when they took the pics of it.

    Yes! I love it. Now I don't feel alone with my opinion anymore. I seriously want a set of those caps!

    So I ended up ordering a set of 235/60/R15 BFG Radial T/A's. Thanks everyone for persuading me!

    Stop using the board's bandwidth by using the attachment function, upload your photos to a hosting site like Photobucket :TU:

    Can you change to 70's or 75's? the 60's may not be tall enough!

    Agree with Ted... 70 suits the Electra better.

    You've already made up your about RWL; IMHO RWL suits 2 dr and WW suits 4 door/full size better.
