Took me a minute to figure that part out.

I had to go with white wall because I was thinking factory look. BUT if the car is modified with Road wheels then I would go with RWL........... Its all about application

I say whitewall for a more "formal" look, otherwise raised whites, especially on the vert.

I am partial on the factory look but love a modified with a raised white letter
That car would look so much better with RWL Dave. Have you seen the Dunlop Qualifiers?

Used to like the Dunlops but they changed the tread patterns many years ago, that is when I switched to the Goodrich tires for my RWL of choice.

yeah, see thats better than white walls
That's a good looking family and I know there are more inside.
Scary, looks like Dave was right, I gotta start backing Dave more 
White walls only look good with hubcaps if then. I'd run black walls before whitewalls. Now the thin double white walls (don't think those are available anymore) or red or blue streaks are another deal all together.
And the white wall shouldn't be too close to the rim .. should be spaced a little more away from the rim / hubcap IMHO

I'd swap the wheels between the two brown ones .. but I'd loose the hubcaps and go with chrome lugnuts. Leave the blue one alone.
Joking .. maybe LOL

Brown one is a "hot rod" with dog dish, the blue one looks more "formal" with the vinyl roof. Doggies on that just wouldn't look right.
I have to disagree.....
Looks great on your car Bob .. wait no it doesn't. The whitewall should be thinner and further from the rim
Actually I was just joking around and pulling Dave's leg
I wouldn't have the doggies on any of them. Chrome lug nuts on the black wheels on the brown one .. which rocks
The blue one looks just right or should attempt to change to RWL when changing tires next instead of RWOL but it looks great as is
I would go with some RWL on the Burnt Orange convert.
