Appearence question for ya'll...
 
I'm ordering a set of Black TTM's for the TA, and I was wondering how the car would look with white letter tires? I want to reinforce the vintage look I'm going with. I've never seen it done on a TA, and I want to know what you guys think before I do it.

IMO RWL tires don't look good on fourth gens, but that's just me. :shrug:

What I was thinking of doing was using the Duplicolor Hot tire paint, and fill in the "BF Goodrich" on the new tires that I ordered with the wheels.

My vote is No, especially with Black TTM's, those are gonna look saweeettt!
But the white letters will kill it.

I got bored one day and colored DRAG on my nittos white, it actually didnt look bad but wore off after a couple weeks. I used the duplicor hottires

i say no. but it's your car.

I think what I'm going to do is, after the wheels get here. I'll do the letters on one tire and put it on the car and take a pic, then post it so ya'll can see how it looks. Just gotta wait for them to get off of backorder first. lol

If you do the 50's are going to call you wanting their white letters back..... All kidding aside I vote NO..

Just some good ole' tire shine

Credit for the retro look. If you do it right, it will look good. Maybe go with anthrasite centers w/gray lettering on just the outline of the letters so it does'nt pop so much.JMO.Four years ago when I put black wheels w/all black tires (white letters not showing) on my truck, everyone said don't do it. I think I started something ya know. Do it and put up some pictures. Yes to radical thinkers.............
