Showing!!!! Look at my gallery they look sweet out! If they are low profile put them in, but mine have enough sidewall to make the letters look good out.

with trucks you should have the letters out. Unless you have the truck lowered, you'll be able to see the in-side of the tires pretty clearly (by looking at the truck and seeing through to the opposite side underneath) and then that will look really bad, in my opinion.

If you don't want the white letters on the outside, find a set of tires without any white letters.

What do you think looks better?

Personally I like the white in as I prefer the look of a solid black side wall.

On my '91 I have the white in and I have had two people say I should have put it out and at minimum 20 say they liked it with the black out.

Look around at some of the pictures on here and decide what you like.

I will never have anything but black side walls. White letters detract from the vehicle, look too busy, IMO.

I'd say put them in IMO, it looks better. I put mine in so the sidewall is all black. I would only consider putting them out if I had anything on the truck accent them (pin striping, white 2 tone, etc...). I don't though and I agree with ovalnut21 about the more aggressive look.

Yes! I love this question....white letters out!!! Especially if you have a lighter colored truck. I think if you have a dark colored truck, possibly the black walls out may look better... but that's JMHO.

Black letters out!



Yes you can see the white letters sometimes, but it's not that bad.

Black! White letters just look cheesy.

I like white lettering, but the lettering on my stock BFG's are turning black on me. I think they look sportier, but that is just me.
