all black vs raised white lettering

simple · April 24, 2004

I think it depends on the color of the vehicle. I like the lettering on a black truck, but not so much on different colors. Your thoughts?

I'd agree, depends on color. My current tires are the first ones I've had black out, no choice, they are directional tread pattern. I like the look of black out on my color truck. Alot depends on the way the lettering looks, BFG, Dueler's, are some of the better looking lettering on the tires, IMO. IMO, Michelin's one of the worst. To each his own though! Chris

Have the white on my Revo's. Looks good with the blue body color.

I just got some BF G's installed today, and the people said "We can only install them correctly - which means white letters facing outward." Whatever that means, who cares! Truck looks great; and my 02 is Burgundy.

I forgot to ask why do you think that raised lettering is more in style with trucks/suvs than cars?

Gotta look cool on your stool!!

White letters OUT and CLEAN, not dirty and gray.

Wesleys Bleach White works best!

I too think it depends of color. The darker trucks I think look better with whites out lighter color trucks just look better to me with all black tires.

Why trucks/suvs have more raised whites then cars... I guess that for the most part modern cars are either low profile wearing sports cars or more higher profile family type cars. Older muscle car era cars had higher profile tires so the white letters were more popular... make sense??? Just my opinion and we all know what opinions are like.

I prefer all black on any vehicle, esp. My black '02 Z71. Having said that, when I purchase my new Revo's in the next month or so, I will be putting them on white letters out. It appears that they do not offer a black walled Revo tire and I hate seeing the lettering on the inside of the tires...

its white letters out for me. but as stated earlier, they need to be clean - steel wool works real well on cleaning upi the letters as well

Got to be black out! Because the first time you slide into a rut or I guess its curbs if you are a city only truck, the white letters look terrible all scratched up.
