RWL Tires, anyone make them anymore?

[Skyjockey]

I have 275/60r20 stock size tires. Looking for AT type tire, nothing radical. I'm old school and like the raised white letter tires but this size there is nearly nothing out there? Anyone find any, have pics? If I have to I might compromise with outlined white letters

Michelin sells the LTX A/T 2 tires with OWL in 275 65 R20. Cooper also sells the Discoverer AT3 XLT in that size for considerably less. I wouldn't mind the 1" taller diameter, it's only 3% taller so it won't throw off your speedometer. You can find a review from an owner who purchased the Coopers in Amazon and the truck looks great.

General makes a Grabber A/Tx in a raised white letter, but apparently not in this size. Not sure why they make in some sizes and not others. I may have to ask around... They are a very highly rated tire from what I've heard. My daughter has a set on her Jeep (white letters turned in). But not sure what size offhand. Just my 2¢

General Grabber also has a RWL option IIRC. i decided on trying the adhesive rubber tire letters route, little tedious to apply properly but easy to maintain.

Pirelli Scorpion All-terrain Plus OWL in that size as well

If there's a tire you really prefer and it's OWL only, you might consider putting a burr in a Dremel and removing the black inside the letters to reveal the white.

I looked into this. My current tires are a raised black lettering afraid these wouldn't stick for long just glued around the edges?

Serious ? Never heard this. If they can actually do this then why not offer the option. white one side black on the other

There isn’t enough demand. There is a layer of white rubber under the outer black sidewall. When the tire goes into the mold, the rubber fills the letters and there is still black on top of the white. The tops of the letters get hit with a buffer, revealing the white. Under the black rubber in between the outlines is white rubber. I think that I would practice on a junk OWL tire first.

Makes me think of that guy on YouTube making wide whites on a rat rod with a angle grinder.

Falken Wildpeak's have an OWL option

Check out the goodyear adventure all terrain with kevlar i just 4 on my 2015 sport and they're very quiet on the highway

I still miss white walls, and fender shirts, showing my age here
But not enough to grind a side wall, LOL.
