Without question.------"White Walls Rule" on the right bike like my 09 RKC.
If you have a jack its a piece of cake to keep them clean and like already said, If I had spoke/mag whhels I would probably go black wall but my lace wheels rock..but again a chore to keep clean.
Depends on what YOU want YOUR bike to look like. Changing from white to blackwalls can change the whole appearance of a bike. Some bikes take to the change others, not.
Case in point, my bike with the paint scheme I have did not look good with whitewalls, IMO. I think the before and after pics say it all. Not everyone will agree but, I didn't do it for everyone else. It's the look I wanted.

I agree ^^^^
Both before and after looks great btw
If you think keeping them clean is a PITA then by all means go with black walls. Personal preference here I guess, but I enjoy washing my WWWs and keeping them clean. WWWs are like teeth - if you let them age and yellow...everyone will notice that to.
