Thin colored-strip tires were a 'thing' of the mid/late 1960"s. After 1970, only thin whitewall or raised white letter (RWL) tires were available from the factory. But, an owner has to like the 'look' of their car...whether 'period-correct' or not. With the right body color, a colored-stripe tire can look mighty good.

I would pick a tire on best fitting size, vs a color band.
that said the gold line would probable look better than red line on gold car.
