    lol, you know you can buy a mitsubishi(yes, thats right) white pen marker that you can "colour in" the writing on your tyres to do this for about $10. means you can have writing on any tyres you buy.

    Yeah I used to use 'posca' paint textas in hot pink to make my drag slicks on my fueler match the colour (or close) of the car


    But I was 12

    Yeah, I was just thinking, that would look MAD if you had dish rims with a PHAT tyre profile

    I've always had this secret thought in the back of my mind, that my car may look just a little bit hardcore with white lettering on the tyres... ...

    *s######*

    Dude, just rip the hubcaps off and roll on the stockies. It'll look so much better

    Bring back white lettering :!) it was all the rage back in the 80's and beyond. It would suit the old school look on my VP . You know if 100 of us did it, it would be the fashion within a year

    oh the fronts are the VN 'SS' mags, the backs are just some cheap spares i got for free before i get new tyres for my rear mags. And those clip ones look really close to the front mags anyhoo...
