Tires with white lettering

[el ess A]

meh. Not my cup of tea on the 5th gens, but if people like it on their cars, more power to them. They're not horrible, but I wouldn't do it. I think a car's sidewalls should reflect the times of their era. And this era isn't about white letters. Strictly my opinion.

Disclosure- I have a few 80s so-called Oldsmobile "muscle cars" and yes, they sport the original-style Goodyear Eagle GT RWOL tires.

Yeah, I think this look is coming back! I'm seriously considering doing this when I get my Gen6! Some cars wont be able to pull it off though!

Yeah, I wish people would stop putting 20" or larger wheels with no sidewall tires on old cars. They certainly don't fit the era, and look silly most of the time.

I agree! I still like the back tires on the new camaro's to have just a little more meat on them. I think that looks bad ass!

Ordered an APR Carbon Fiber front splitter, carbon fiber spoiler, black gill stripes, Cold Air Intake (ok, that's not cosmetic, but whatever), and the white lettering from Tredwear. What I'd really like, is to have the car look something close to this (without the blue stripes or red interior trim).

which companies wheels are these? looks badass!

I don't know why they ever went away. They look great on race cars today. You get a sense of how fast the wheels are turning.

Yep looks great. Like the front plate, "aerodynamic"
