35 or 40 years ago, a guy I worked with told me about a buddy of his who would buy cars from car auctions, and among other detailing tricks would cut the tire sidewalls with some sort of machine and color the groove with a color which would suit the particular car, like blue or red or yellow, or white. The guy claimed that just the sidewall treatment routinely increased the re-selling price of the car several hundred dollars worth.
 
Diamondback vulcanizes the red rubber stripe onto the tire along with a barrier underneath that prevents discoloration of the stripe.
 
I got the Diamondbacks in 225/60R15. They make them in red, blue, yellow, or white. But since this car came with red lines, I though they were appropriate.
