To white letter or not white letter?

What? Are we driving Studebakers??? Put those white walls and white letters where no one can see them!!

I've never been a fan of the white facing out but it's not even so much a looks thing. With white letters out whenever you (or, more to the point.... your wife) rubs the tires hard on the curb the white backing shows through and it looks like crap. Pretty soon you're working towards a full-on whitewall.

When you learn how to park you won't need a wife around to blame. Better keep the dog around during chilli dog season though.

I’m on the fence with these.

I've seen white letters give a nice contrast to the murdered out look you have going.

Try it out and if you don't like it, just flip them bad boys around and you're good haha.

This is the right call, IMO

Unless you have a white truck, I say heck no. BUT, U could go totally old school, and start a new trend? U may be the most talked about ride on the block. Yer choice of course.

You joke, but they can look good on a modern truck. Gives it an old school feeling.

Exactly only think I care about when buying a truck is shiny stuff, more shiny stuff, and white letter tires.

Noooooooooooo

I recently ordered a set of 305/70/17 cooper discoverer AT3 XLT tires and I have the option of doing white letter. Should I do it? Usually not a fan of it but my truck kinda has old school looking wheels and I’d kinda be a subtle throwback... I know it’s not that big of a deal but I don’t wanna have any regrats


Up to you but here’s my 2010

Ok in these PC days and dealing with some with fragile egos on here, I will say It's a personal preference, no right or wrong and everyone gets a trophy.
BUT that being said, attached is a picture of my 1986 Monte Carlo SS (remember the "photograph" you had to wait 4 days to pick up after you dropped of the "film" for processing?).
Sorry no iphones back then. I used to brush them with a toothbrush and whitener. Enough said.

I don't have blacked-out trucks but I always put black letters out. Today, white letters out seems dated, except maybe for some specific color schemes.

 

[Addicted2fishing]

I chickened out and black sidewall out.... lol

If you are going to do a lot of 4 wheeling I would say no. If not definitely out. It brightens the colors if your truck and gives it a cleaner look.
