Who's running their white letter tires OUT instead of in still?

I'm old enough.

Fail

I've noticed that some of the tire companies write WAY too much on tire sidewalls. Mine just say "Michelin Michelin" NOT overdone. But "Grand GT Sports Tread Highway Performance Better That Yours" just doesn't look right.

a prime example of RWL looking "right" on a car...certain cars need it, look better with it IMO....Out here in AZ its a fashion faux pas to run your letters out...especially on a lifter pick-em-up...

On the 'right' cars the letters can be out, like most musclecars.
On all other cars it often looks sputip...

Some 25 years ago I used to put the letters out on my first and second cars (Ford Taunus / '67 Newport) ... Then I realised how 'misplaced' it looked, putting 'sporty-looking tires on a luxury car.
Since then I always put them inside. My current car stash doesn't lend for having letters out.

Some cars look much more 'business' with blackwalls.

I like BFG out, the t/a everything. mud/street..truck or car.

A recent one I saw, throwing out the old car only stereotype, was one of those rally subarus with enough power to send four wheels spinning.
that was cool as heck, four white lettered tires.

I'd it for an old Subaru as well. Square looking font on the old square suby. I have white lettered factory mudflaps.

Another thing that is for, many years had trouble with bias, or not enough smart tire.
The boxer engines were tortured even after the invention of radials.

I like to see a brand stand out on troubled car/tire years.

I like white out, unless you're running made in China like the ones on my truck when I bought it. "Hankook" looks like a lame attempt to spell "Hancock" by someone who doesn't speak English. I guess it could be worse...they could have named them "Panda Garden"

Young or old. Letters out = Dork. C'mon.

Count me as a card carrying member of the Dork Club!

[Barry Donovan]

ima dork too.
my subaru should be dorkin..


this tire and 3400 pound sidewalls has a 118 mph rating.
boasting justified...do you know how many decades people had to wait for that?

this also has it in the rpo codes... WOL (white outlined lettering)
why not go with the factory sporty extras.

suck it nay-sayers



I sell a lot of tiers at the garage...I can safely say that almost all my customers want the letters in....weirdo's...

[STINEY]

Weirdo's indeed.

[anotheridiot]

we are too. It was hard enough to find raised white letter tires to just hide them away underneath, why not pay respect to the era we are copying?

[malc]

I´m white letters out on my latest tire set.

[corvettedad]

Solid white out, never really cared much for outline but sometimes that's all you can get.
