Whitewall paint

I used Ranger tire paint to paint my whitewalls. The tires are new and I had to recoat a couple of times due to bleed through, but they look really good unless you are really up close.

OT question. What is the rail above the wheel well for? Is that for covering your wheels somehow?

I think the rail is for a canvas wheel cover like the awning for sun protection when parked or in storage??

I'm not sure. I would guess it is for covering the wheels. It has a C channel like the awning is attached to at the top of the camper. It did not come with any covers however.
