Raised Lettering On Sidewall
How many of you guys currently have or are considering raised colored lettering on your tires? I personally am starting to grow fond of this look!

There was a feature on the Drive Clean channel on youtube about installing the raised letters. Definetly considering it, I love the look!

No regrets the red one!

I had raised white letters on my 1983 Camaro Berlinetta when I was a kid, I still like them today. I have seen them on a couple of 5th gens here on the forums. I also see a Challenger on my way home from work on occasion that has raised white letters and I think it looks very cool.
I am considering it for my Victory Red SS.

Haha!! I guess I'm considered old school now. As I remember that's all I remember was available on sports tires and(correct me if I'm wrong, but before white letter tires it was white walled tires) if you had white letter tires and wanted blacked walled you just had them installed WL inside. I also had the thin white or red line tires on my '69 Camaro with Corvette Rally's of course! It took me a long time to accept putting tires on my vehicles with out WL or should i say RWL(raised white letter). My 1996 Impala SS was the first without RWL. I am a sucker for the BF GOODRICH T/A the best RWL tire made and some GOODYEAR GT's. I guess that's the southern redneck in me! LoL..looks like Austin Powers in the first pic in drivers seat! Your right nancygrl, it is old school. Sorry, just had these pics and decided to share them. Peace,

i like the look but most important it probably gives you better center of gravity all around and 3 hp per tire.

Pretty ricey IMHO. Only white letters that are cool are the ones that actually come on the tire from the manufacturer.
