White letters in/out
I'm going to try to switch tire's and sell my Revo's 265/70/17. They only have 2800 mile's on them but want a more aggressive look and more aggressive AT tire.
On my 06 Galatic Gray what do you think looks better , white's in or out ??? I've been throught the gallery and it's all personal pref. , but a blackwall seem's to make the tire look a little bigger since there is no white letter's to break it up.

Personally, I like white letters out, especially on the Sports. But depending on how much and what kind of offroading you do, black might be better. Scrubbing against something as simple as a curb can scuff the white and really mess up the looks.

if you have white out, theyll get dirty and you wont see them unless you bleach clean every week with a toothbrush and hose.

Actually, Grease Lightning works great on the tires. But it's a little difficult to keep the stuff off your wheels.

Re: White letters in/out
I'm not trying to be a prick or anything, I'm just trying to give you some friendly advice (not about your tires):
You should not automatically use an apostrophe with any word ending in "s"
The words in blue should not use apostrophes:

BTW, I think you should keep the white letters out.

What???
You use a toothbrush to clean the white letters on your tires? That would take far too long for me. I use a 6-inch scrubbing brush with any good cleaner for the kitchen. Soft Scrub works great and it only takes 10 seconds per tire. My white letters stay white for much more than a week. I clean them maybe once a month at the most.

I don't think that any of the members come here for an English lesson. Let's stick to the topic.
Please use PM next time if you want to teach a lesson, Fourty.

That's true. They are definitely more work.
