I would leave them turned inside. Keeping tires clean sucks, let alone white letters.

If your keeping those fender flairs black and not painting white to match the truck I'd leave the black sides out. Everything goes together.

Black walls out is the way to go. So much easier to lube up and you don't have to scrub the white letters with steel wool. Just looks like a "cleaner" mounting to me.

Btw, how do you like those Destination A/T's? I have the Destination LE's on mine and love them. I may go with those again over the Bridgestone Revo's when I graduate to 20" wheels, provided they make the size I want.

Really comes down to what you want. Everyone is going to have an opinion (mine would be black) but obviously not everyone prefers it that way or else they wouldn't give you options and have one side black and the other white. Don't listen to what others say, do what you want and since your asking about the white then there has to be something there which grabbed your attention. You can always try it out and if you don't like it it'll only cost you about 20 bucks to get them flipped back the other way

Joe, all due respect, but he asked for input. Which means he's open to suggestion, on the fence, indecisive, etc. So maybe asking for people's opinions helped him make up his mind. And were can you get 4 tires mounted and balanced for 20 bucks?

Costs me 5 bucks a tire for a customers vehicle but I also send a lot of business to alignment shops. I realize everyone he asked for an opinion and I was just telling him to stick with what he thinks is best. Something I'm more familiar with would be lift kits and everyone thinks theirs is the best while a buddies of theirs, or even worse a buddies grandmas sons best friends nephew happened to get the worst. I guess 20 might be wrong but that's what I pay (unless it's my personal truck and then it's free). Wasn't trying to imply anyones opinions were incorrect, just saying go with your gut.
