I changed my car tires from blackwalls to yellow letters. I use that plasti-dip stuff for dipping pliers in (it makes the rubber coating for the handles) and apply it with a syringe. I came up with this because my dad had a nascar edition f-150 and yellow letter tires aren't available anymore and that's what came on it. I know on his truck the letters I did have just started to crack some and they've been on there for 70k miles, so it lasts a real long time.
Here's one of the cars tires:

I'm debating doing my truck too.
Here's a pic of the white letters it has now.

Here's a pic I made in MS Paint with yellow letters

Tell me which one you like. I'm up in the air about it. I put it on the car because it definately looks good on black cars and trucks.

Just dont clean em for a while, it will look close enough,lol. Your truck is perfect. I dont thing the narrow outlined letters would look right. I saw a black 86 swb that had the Nascar type wheels and Goodyear yellow lettered tires, and it looked sharp. Your truck doesnt need anything....except me driving it

The more and more I look at it, i don't think i like it on my truck. Yeah I think I'll keep it for black vehicles.... Red would probably go better, but I don't want to have red letter tires ...yuck It was a thought.

I got a pic of the car this morning with the new yeller letter tars.

I vote no on the yellow. Your truck is great the way it is. If your gonna have white lettered tires clean and bright white look the best, if they are black wall, clean with tire shine or something like that. If Goodyear or Nascar was buying my tires they would be neon yellow.

The car looks good

They look good on the car but on your truck I say no. Your truck is perfect the way it is already.
