White letters in or out

[mikeyss]

Your opinion is false.

Sorry man, I stick by my opinion. I love the trucks though

Another vote for IN on a modern vehicle.

Classics/Muscle cars are differnt story.

It wont matter with the truck that dirty anyway LOL ( sorry, couldnt resist !!! )

So I decided on out, just because these are stock wheels and not larger. I think it looks good with the letters breaking up the sidewall a little. If I had 18-20” wheels, I’d have gone with white in. Thanks for the feedback [emoji106][emoji16]

Letters in and white walls out.

If we’re really talking true white walls, nobody is putting them on newer vehicles and back in the day and for lowered cars/ trucks you cant beat the look of white walls and dog dish hub caps.

Honestly look around and post how many white letters you see out today or how many cars/trucks you see with white walls.

It you see letters its a lifted truck and if whitewalls its a lowered truck/car.

My 3.5 cents for the day...

Haha! Truth

 

[Sam Harris]

At least a bit cleaner now.

 

[Boatguy272]

Much better !!!

... There's nothing cool about white on tires.

LOL But but but... tires ARE white.

White letters are ok i guess, UNTIL they rub a curb or ten. The first time I saw an SS Chevelle with white letters that had been turned into white sidewalls, it scarred me. Deeply.

I say again- white in, black out.

I had white letters on my old truck. But the truck was white too. It matched well. It’s all personal preference. As long as the letters aren’t all chopped up I think it looks good. Keep a tire marker for touch ups

Sorry . Better pics . Damn I miss that truck, had plans for ram 20s and a 2/4 drop ....but life happened
Used a pen marker called Hot Tires. Can see the white compliments the white

In. IMO, OWL/RWL are only for 60s-70s muscle cars.

 

[Garandman]

White letters IN, always IN!! Haha. IMO, There is nothing worse than seeing white letters on tires, it steals attention away from the vehicle. They also don't stay white, and look even worse as they age. It reminds me of the old 50's cars that had the white rings. There's nothing cool about white on tires.

Says it all!

Sorry, but I'd prefer to not have the Pilsbury Dough Boy waving at me everytime I get into the rig. I vote for IN.

Love the white out on the Bimmer first time I've ever seen that. on the other hand i love the black on the Porsche... maybe because it's yellow. also reminds me of F1 or ALMS.. or whatever they call it now. I know it's not a fair comparison pertaining to your question.. On my Yota.. i'm all blacked out...

 

[Brian H]

White letters out. Just make sure not to buy some Gladiator M/Ts or Super America M/Ts because you can't shine a turd of a tire, much less try to show it off. 6" RC Lift with 35 x 17 on American Racing Wheels. Classic!

 

[KatGV]

I always put them out. BFG k2's best tires ever always get at lease 60,000. miles from them

 

[mountie]

Out if the tires a high-end.... in if they are cheapo's...... I keep my tires & letters very clean.

 

[grouch]

I'm rather chea......er.....thrifty. I put white out if the tire has them as you pay for the white, get some use out of it. I don't know how many vehicles I've had over the years. somewhere around 250-300. If I get a tire with white letters, they always go out.

As for the trend towards huge wheels and skinny rubber, yeah, on those go with the white in. You won't see those on my vehicles as I've repaired many a sussension around here where someone went with the Kalifornia look of huge wheels and skinny rubber and met up with Indiana pot holes. Some of the roads I take my 2000 Escalade down, you know they're roads as there are no trees growing on them.
