    99% of the time, I'll go with no lettering showing.

    White letters look good w/old school mags,magnums or the factory ford flat caps/rings.White letters look goofy(to me)on Welds,Prostars or any other high $$ wheels that don't need the dressup.Having said that,my magnums have blackwalls cuz I do think it looks cleaner...and I've got 2 different brand tires on them(tiger paw rear/avenger gt front).

    Yeah, let's advertise what kind of tires we have on our cars, even if they're cheap, and let's scrub the letters every week with a S.O.S. pad or Ajax because they look awful if you drive through a puddle or on a dirt road...:rolleyes:

    Some cars they look good, some cars they don't. Just depends. Dan's car just wouldn't be complete without the white letter tires IMO.

    But, none of my cars will ever have white walls/letters out. When I had new tires put on the '72, the guy tried to talk me into putting the white walls out, but I refused.
