I have always been partial to white out, it must be a BFG thing. (Those were my first set of tires on the truck) I might go black out on my next set. Not sure though.

I had new tires put on yesterday and mounted them black wall out.

My other choice would have been to put the opposite side black wall out.


Seems that they did not stock any raised white lettered tires in the flavor I wanted...

White out. I only have to clean the left side; my wife cleans the right side when she drives it.

I guess I go against the grain: White truck, 2WD, Outlined White Letters OUT.

I don't need my tires to look bigger, but I've always liked the letters for some reason. Probably because of the 70s & 80s muscle cars (70s Trans Ams & 80s Mustangs specifically come to mind). I had my 84 Conv GT Mustang with Eagle GT IIs proudly spinning away (and it was all black, except the rims & white letters )

black out for me, i've had BFG's and the tire shop once mounted them out, i said "oh hell no, black wall out" for some reason, i've always hated white lettering on any vehicle.

I like the Raised White Letter, but trucks white so goes good together, just my opinion.
