Looks great as it sits. I think the lettering might take it too far. JMHO.

I voted "none", but if I had to choose between red or white I'd go with white.

None, unless your car is equipped with a flux capacitor that can take you back to 1975.

If you really want to put lettering on your tires. I would choose black, as your car already looks amazing. White or red lettering will take away the way your red calipers stand out.

Nice pictures by the way. Not sure if you did it on purpose but like how you parked your muscle car across a compact car parking spot, well done.

Believe this is gonna be overwhelmingly "no". Just too over the top, IMO. Most of us dislike the "ricer" look for that very same reason. Too many non-functional appearance items......

None. I've never liked the white lettering on tires, but that is just my opinion. It's your car so do what you like.

Your car is gonna look like a panda bear with all the black and white! Just kidding, as with anything aesthetic it's all in the eye of the beholder. Go with whatever floats your boat.
