Black or White lettering?

To me, white out looks better and it looks nice on your truck.

Well if it's white out at least with the BFGs the lettering looks very good as opposed to some other brands that the lettering is too big or simply looks cheesy.
I off road a bit and when you rub the letters on rocks and such they get beat up and are simply a PITA to keep looking new but I do like the look for the GoodYear lettering on my Duratracs.

Looks good!! If you use a little bit of degreaser and a wire brush, you can keep the white lettering looking like new.

I think it looks great.

me too

Your BFG's with the white lettering out looks GREAT!

Of course, I am partial to those tires on my trucks...

I use Bleachwhite on my raised white letters. They always come out looking great, year after year!

I first got into 4x4s when I was in high school back in the 70's and raised white lettering was the "cool" thing to do. So I'm still a fan of the RWL on off-road tires.

My wife, OTOH, hates them so when we got new tires on her Grand Vitara I had them mounted with the white letters on the inside. My 4runner came with BFG AT KOs mounted with the letters out so I'm happy but if they had been mounted the other way I sure wouldn't have paid good money to have them switched - I like white letters out, but I don't like them enough to spend money on the switch.

BTW, your truck looks great! Green and white is my favorite color combo anyway.

IF I end up buying the 99 supercharged truck, I will have the BFG's turned around so the white letters show.
It's worth it to me.

Here's the Wife's 97 4Runner, and YES she does love her BFG's with the white letters out.

Wow! thanks everyone for all the compliments, I wasn't expecting it to bring that much of a reaction. I might just keep the white.

I got some side shots today for those who asked:

Looks nice with the white out huh? If they get dirty, no biggy. Just wash them.

 

[JohnsD90]

Looks dank, i love the color of the rims.

Good lord man, what do you wax that baby with?

It looks fantastic.

Loving the white btw.

haha thanks man.

I waxed it once... like a year ago haha. People do to tell me it's shiny...

I'll also add that I had to do a bunch of trimming. The mudflaps where they're mounted needed to be trimmed and a lot of inner-fender stuff. They only rub if I go over a bump at full lock. I might do a 99 tall spring swap too.

I hope the wheels finally take my 4Runner to a new level where all the nicer 4Runners are. Ron's is one of those clean, tough looking trucks that's not so modded that it becomes unpractical for daily use. I really like that. I think I'm gonna ditch the billet inserts and swap it with some black wire mesh or something, not digging it anymore. Think it's more wise to sell my grille as a hole and buy a new 02 model grille or just swap the inserts?

I'm trying to swing the car into a new direction, and the billet doesnt flow. It's not like the LED tails and the clear corners, those look great on any rig no matter it's style.


Here's a few I took at the Irvine Spectrum today, I felt happy that my 4Runner was actually a little taller than another one for once.

Yeah, people listen to my opinion. Just sell the whole grill and buy the 02 one.

white out looks good to me. your truck looks way better with those rims/tires. i know someone made the point about not giving out free advertisement, but when you pay for a nice expensive tire like that i would put white out.

 

[KellyJ]

CoB your truck is looking good man, I wish I could swap out rims as often as you. I'm in the market for some FJ rims now, and seeing your truck makes me wanna get on it pronto. Keep up the good work bro

 

[LINY4Runner]

I vote James Harb as the nicest 2wd on T4R.org

 

[Yota_Tech87]
