White wall tires for '18 S560

Never seen this addressed here - Talking real tires, not covers.

Sources? All-season?

What can you tell me?

What size? Biggest I see on the internet are 17 inch which are for sure smaller than your S560.

Good design doesn’t go out of style; fads do,

But pairing old fashion with new style often just looks wrong. White walls look great on a car that is designed for them, that fits that era and look. On an S Class? It will just look strange.

Obviously, you’re entitled to your opinions.

You are not entitled to judge mine.

Not sure where I judged your opinion, I simply offered mine.

Natural Color of Rubber

My Grandfather's last Car, a 1958 Buick Special Riviera had that Iconic Grill. The B-58 Styling used alot of heavy duty chrome, Stainless Steel and Aluminum. He drove that car for over 20-years in the Tidewater area of Virginia down to Windsor, North Carolina. Summer Vacations away from NYC were always great for me because learned to drive like Burt Reynolds since my cousins in NC all had Pontiac Trans-Ams! Grandfather always had White Wall Tires on his Buick and the car was always immaculate until he gave up driving after knee replacement surgery.

The Natural Color of Rubber is actually milky white and remember from old Tony Curtis Rally Movies those classic cars had all White Tires. PhD wifey who worked for the Blood Bank of NY's Research Facility in Liberia West Africa, described how the Firestone workers tapped the Trees to extract the Raw Rubber. Later Bridgestone took over operations.

My Uncle loved Vogue tires back in the day the only tires he would use. They looked great on his 60's Eldorado's and other big boat Caddy's. I think it may look good but I doubt you will find the right size

It’s not at all a priority but it’s the only mod I can conceive of for my car.
Absolutely none of the other changes I read about have any appeal for me.
After all, turned 91 today - that makes me a “Classic,” right?

Amazing, they white walls would look cool but they are sold only in smaller sizes. Their are ads in my Hagerty Drives Club Magazine for white walls but 215 seems like the only size which would be a tad small

Of everything I've EVER heard on any forum at any time; I'd give it all up to be able to type, or even say, I just tuned 91 years old!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY "Newbyloub" and I wish you many more to come. And yes, you ARE a Classic

Just take it one day at a time, do your best to stay healthy, and do things moderately.

I’ve seen one in the seattle area with gold lines… Car had a lot of mods with an aftermarket color and it looked good. Not my style, but the car does turn heads.
