[edit]
Grooved Type
A special machine makes a groove in the tyres, then they put special paint in the groove. Looks great, can be done to any size tyres, not just the limited sizes avaialable as new whitewalls:
Some suppliers are mobile, they come to your place with their van and do it. The above is a picture of Mr. Whitewall out of Adelaide, Australia.
New tires have a thicker white section so may be more durable over the long run. They can be restained several times.
