Default How's this for a set of M/T DR's.

This guy was running a cool old rat rod looking 50's chevy truck and I got a better look at his tires. They were M/T street radials that had the side walls shaved smooth at white walls put on it. I bout **** my pants. Didn't think I would ever see this lol.
The truck had a SBC with a 671 type blower and dual carbs. It ran high 11's/low 12's.

I buddy on mine has a 50 Plymouth that has fake whit walls on it, you just slip it between the tire and the wheel before airing the tire up and the bead holds the whit wall in place. Made it so you could put any size or brand tire you want on and have the look you wanted.

These are REAL white walls. Not something stuck on the tire.
