Would probably have to paint the tire size as well, to balance it out, IMHO

All these tire photos are worthless without matching photos of the owners' mullets.

I had a 2003 Jeff Gordon edition monte SS that came factory with yellow lettered tires.

Like many things, a little goes a long way. White lettering for the Tire manufacturer and model isn’t bad, but words not originally there like “CAMARO” , “SUPERSPORT”, and “Thunder” look like you’re trying too hard.....just my opinion....do as you wish with yours

Well, I do have KC And The Sunshine Band loaded in my tape deck, err, CD player.
I think raised whites look great, just not sold on the paint markers holding up over time otherwise I'd have done it by now.

I think keeping the letters rather small look better than the huge letters in some kits. When they are big and take up the whole sidewall of the tire, it just starts to look kinda goofy IMHO. OTOH, do what you please. The only thing that really matters is... if you, the car owner, likes it.

Tire paint. Haven't mounted them yet though.[ATTACH][/ATTACH]
Not sure why pics are sideways. Tried to rotate them but didn't work. |

See, those look great. Because those are actually Pirelli P Zeros and it was done well.
When someone puts GOODYEAR tire letters on their set of CHAOYANG's...well, let's just say it doesn't look right. But either way I always go back to the tried and true "Ain't my car, I really don't GAF what they do". If it makes someone else happy then who cares?

This may sound a bit silly, but if it's the tire manufacturer's name and tire model I like it, if it's something else, I don't. Ultimately, the only opinion that matters is the opinion of the owner of the car.
