took some new pics w/white lettering tire paint

[HEAVYGT]

I just think the tire manufacturers are really missing the boat...I spent $6.00 on duplicolor tire touchup paint yesterday and about an hour of careful detail work. I just think it makes it look alot more like a classic 70's muscle car. Now if only Nitto or Mickey Thompson made the drag radials with white lettering...I would even take the GoodYear Eagle F1's. What do you guys think? Am I the only one who likes this old school look???

Hmmm.....I think it does add something. Not sure if it would do with every color car thou.

kinda nascarish

I like it !! It reminds me of the "good old days".

looks wrong.Raised white lettered tires went outfor a reason.

Looks killer. I was thinking of doing the same thing.

I used to do that when I was a kid. Doesn't look to bad at all, actually. I'd say go for it.

You need more of it, like the tire size on the other side. It looks kind of lop-sided.

Why do you have svt and Cobra badging?

He bought the super-secret svt cobra.

i agree, the lettering is nice but off side with nothing to offset the brand name

People need to stop with badges, it's an epidemic. Tires look pretty cool.

tires look good, does it wash off if u dont like it?

 

[McQueens Dream]

not really my thing, but if you like it, it's ok with me...

I used to do this with my first car but the white doesn't last long - the tyre rubber bleeds into it and makes it go brown. OK if you got the time to keep doing it.

 

[PoopDawg]

All I have to say is

And the badges....

Ditto, get that SVT and 4.6 off there and you are good to go.

Ya Dennis, I'm still going to Busse Woods but I am going to Speed, Inc. open house first...let me know if you want to ride up there together...I was thinking about leaving around 9 or 9:30. Great chance to see Speed, Inc's shop, meet the guys and checkout their work. Probably be around 75 or more customer cars there.
