White letters out or black?

[Jim King]

I have been driving Jeeps since the 80s so I'm supposed to have white letters out. Also, I think it looks better since my Jeep is black.

 

[Mike Gibbs]

Black out!!!

Personal preference, but I love white letters out on a TJ.

Well since my new 33x12.50 Goodyear MTR's won't balance correctly and rode like SHIT. Goodyear offered replace them with Goodyear Duratrac's and refund me the differance. No brainer to me. So I took them up on their offer and also bought some new Mammoth Boulder Beadlock style Charcoal wheels. Had them mount the WHITE LETTERS OUT! Love the new look and ride!!

I love both... but for the look I wanted on my TJ black was the answer for my taste.

@JimmyZ How did that warranty process work? Did the tire store handle everything or did you contact Goodyear directly? I have a tire that is out of round but Discount Tire says it is fine. I know it is out of round because I measured it myself with a dial indicator and also my vibrations went away when I swapped it with the spare tire. Wheel is straight.

i personally hate the white letters i have both the TJ and the F250 black out

 

[WDE]

Black lettering only

White letters out, otherwise just buy black wall tires. It looks stupid when someone turns and you can see the white letters on the inside.

The goodyear store I bought them from handled everything for me.

To revisit this thread. I think maybe I should turn the black walls out because the “Jeep” lettering for my particular paint color is black (dark gray).

White letters look better on Jeeps that have the light silver or white “Jeep” & “WRANGLER” decals.

Back to black letters now, only because these my new Hankook 315/70r17 MT's didn't come with white letters.

Black out - for the same reason that you don't use your mobile (cell phone) in public

Had to Google that - Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) codes of the United Kingdom - impressive
