You could probably get away with them on a 75 but full on whitewalls would be just wrong. As for liking Crestas I still do

I'm going to have a PA Cresta someday & a Rover P5

Now white bands I do like & really want a set for my P6

Hey! Colin

I like the 1950's car image (oh! and the mens shoes you got back then) you know the ones! they were shiny Tan and white leather
