Thanks =)

I also found that summit racing has some whitewall options...  but many are
very expensive and those that are not are not a very good size..  I found
whitewall 185-70-13's.. I know they'll throw off the speedo but I won't mind
that as long as they look and drive decent.

Still shopping, so keep any help coming!  Thanks to Jim Davis I've got a
source for the blackwalls, any help finding similarly sized whitewalls would
be appreciated!
