whitewalls look classier on these cars, but plackwaals paired with good rims are ok too, vogues look like SH*T when they get old, the gold wears off anf the white shows blkack through, plus the ride like crap

Vogues are not for cars, they are for garage queens.

Whitewalls on DeVilles,Fleetwoods, and Broughams and all the 1991 and older cars except Allante' looks best. The problem is finding a real whitewall vs a white stripe is tough. Vogues aren't just for the as we called "Trailer Queens" of the show car circuit. Vogue offers the closest to a "old school" whitewall, they come with road hazzard and wear out warranties also. IMO whitewalls don't belong on sports / performace cars eliminating the Allante', 92-02 Eldo, and 92 to date Seville/STS, XLR, -V cars. One late note about Voque whitewalls:they require special care and cleaner to keep them looking good, see dealer for details, wire brushes or abrasive pads can ruin/remove whitewall and Radial IX series ride is comparible to other mainstream tires.

I like big whitewalls on older larger cars.

As to your question does it matter? Should only matter to you.

That is true, I was just curious what other caddy owners had to say,
I went with the blackwalls, Pirelli P4s.
not a bad look clean,and shined up. I also have stock chrome caddy rims with the color caddy crest center caps so that helps.
I also love the white wall look but there isnt too much of a difference
thanks for the input
Ill post some pics as soon as I get my high speed next week I still have crappy dial up.
