I am glad to read that everyone had the same attitude that I had when Bruce said it to me..... I was always told by my older brothers it is one way or the other.. but to save from being riduculed don't run whitewalls with styled wheels.
I think that is called ''period correct". It's for when you are making a recreation of a '32 Ford coupe the way some high school kid (or greaser drop out) would have done back in 1958!
I'm not sure anybody ever did that combo on purpose. It was definitely a process of getting the money to finish the project.
