I prefer Blacks Out... Not a big fan of White on tires, mostly because i'm fat and lazy and don't want to keep them shiny!

Constantly rubbing your tires on the side of the curb will wear out your white walls, well, at least on the drivers side, unless you move to England. But then again, you only have to worry about these 2 issues if your truck is a street queen. But no worries if you will be doing this on a weekly basis:
white walls on that ride would definately catch peoples eyes

I like them both. I have owl on my winter setup and it really does change the appearance of the truck.

IMO, no other tire brand but BFGoodrich looks good with white letters out, simply becuase they are SOLID white letters. Everyone else outlines them, and they look horrible.

And as far as cleaning goes, I dont clean black letter tires any different than I clean white letter tires. They both get a nice coat of Wesley's and a scrub brush. Tires look clean and white letters look clean. Try it.

That's a good point. I personally like the RWL on my BFG AT KO's 33"......

I like the raised white letters. Makes anything look more sporty. - Og

White letters, only if it's a 4x4 and especially if they're BFG tires...

Every time I see BFG's with solid white letters, I feel so envious. They look good and I can't help but wonder what my tires would look like with solid white letters.
