The whitewalls complete the picture...I have zero problems with them.
To say that car is off the hook is an understatement...amazing! :thumbsup:

Just to be sure ---- RR's quality and craftsmanship and attention to the details is almost unequaled.

Not that RRBT customer insisted on a white stripe on their tires, it would seem that was Troy's idea, but say a customer did insist on having a stripe on them.

On Nailed for example, I think the standard gold or red stripe tires out there that used to be an option on some musclecars would be too much of a contrast to the rest of the car with the color they painted around the portholes and the emblems.

If that accent was a different color, maybe something other than a white stripe would have worked. I still think they would have went semi-wide white. :)

I'm looking forward to seeing it in person. 3rd gen new Buick buyer here. Gotta support the team!

:lol:

Just read the Troy's Top 25 on Hot Rod Mag. Love all the work he does and he still seems like your average Joe and takes time to explain his work in great detail when you get to chat with the man.

Agreed! The whitewalls complement the look of this car. The paint color helps too. For instance, the other Buick, I guess G54 is its name, wouldn't have looked good with white walls to me. I think it would have been a better candidate for a gold or red line tire honestly. There as well, the G54 Buick has more of a performance rim design where as nailed has a touring design. I like both the cars and would be all over them if I saw them in person.

Wow, that is gorgeous!
Keeping it old school with new school thrown in for good measure.

Troy T. spoke on a variety of subjects during this interview that started out discussing the "Nailed' build.
