Default Mag Wheels with White Walls

Anyone running Mag wheels with white wall tires. I have an 08 RKC and love the nostalgic look but after going through the hassle of getting a flat tire over the weekend i'm looking into getting something with no tube. I know there are sealed spoke wheels that you can run tubeless but that research will have to be another thread. Opinions are welcome but photos would be great.

For that tube flat all you needed was SLIME and an air pump and ride.

I will have to try the slime in the future. I am guessing with how quick it went out that I have a tear in the tube. I couldn't find an exterior hole but tried to add air and still got no pressure. The slime is a good idea sure couldn't have hurt
