Default Need your opinion on white walls... yes or no?

So i have my wheels off the bike... i am puting on twisted stainless spokes with glosss black hubs and rims, JmpanCoast HOOOOOOKED me up with a new front tire, and the rear ws off for the coating and relace... dad has a can of whitewall paint in the basement... so i am debating... think i should do the tires or no??? i like a VERY clean look mind you... that is why everything is gloss black and i am very particular... i did this on paint for an idea of what it would look like... should i do it or no?

If you had red rims, yes. But there is so much black on your bike it just doesnt look right. (in my opinion)

I like it.I just wish you could get tires like that without having to hand paint them.

Here is how mine look,

You decide on your own,

As for me, I have never had more people ask about the bike since I added the Avon whitewalls,

I think it would look pretty good. You don't see to many people with white walls anymore.
