white letters in. aside from creating more stuff to clean, I think it simply looks better. I never was a fan of letters out.

Every real tire has white letters. Every black wall tire looks like crap from any side angle shot.

I learned my lesson when I went black wall out for the first year. I absolutely hated the looks of it and I went and reversed them. Love them now.

This thread is kinda dumb..........Although I did vote.


Like anything else, it's all a matter of opinion, of which there is going to be differences.....


Calling people names like "Mall Crawler", or saying that only real tires are black-wall only makes you sound like a tool..........


If there wasn't enough market for it, tire manufacturers wouldn't bother with the extra process that it takes to make white-letter tires.
Obviously there is!


It's a personal preference, plain and simple.
If you like the look of white letters, face them out!
If you like the look of black walls, face them in!


We all like to personalize our Jeeps.
It's your Jeep. Personalize it however you want......

Sometimes... haha

I vote for black- It heats up more and will melt snow stuck in between your treads more quickly. Also lets mud dry, crack and fly off faster.

Can not believe that three pages were wasted talking about such a lame subject. I can see discussing which tire is the best on rocks, mud, general trails, even which is better on the highway, but discussing someones opinion of which is the best looking now, that is lame.

Lololol sorry big boy, didn't realize that sometimes these lighter subjects can't be discussed. I think it's lame that you took the time to call this thread lame. To each his own..

So because you aren't interested in the topic this thread discusses, then:

A. Why are you in this thread?

B. Why waste your clearly precious time in this thread where the topic is as you've expressed, lame?

C. what I did there?
