Default Can you paint tires to match the body color

Like for instance arctic white exterior and paint the tires not the rims white too?

What is going on with all these posts? Just trying to stir the pot, or what?

Seriously, Ive just been getting up to date on the forum threads and all ive got to say is youve got some interesting ideas.....

Its your thing though. I think youre just talking though. Why anyone would want to do some of the things youre saying to a perfectly fine vette that already doesnt need a thing makes my head hurt. But like I said, its your thing, whatever makes you happy. I just turn my head and convince myself i didnt see anything.....

OK Jeff, c'mon now. I've read the post about Mad Max, interiors, wings, scoops, Knight Rider and now we're painting tires. Put the bong down and quit drinking the liquid that's in there. It'll make you see things that aren't real. Remember "Drugs are Bad". Now quittit! No wonder the serious guys are going to LS1LT1 and other places. You're running them off. If you want to do that it's your car. Go ahead. Just don't tell anyone or expect any compliments. Are you sure you wouldn't rather have rice??

Jeff has been bringing this car back from the dead for over a year now. I think somebody's got his sign in info..or, he's smashed his fingers so many times that he keeps hitting the wrong keys

A perfectly fine vette, you must have me confused with someone else. Maybe some camo paint?

Nah just tired of the car, taking a great deal of interest in my 82 vette instead and going to mod this 90 just to have fun.
