Do you show the White wall or Black wall on your tires?
I change tires at Sam's Club currently while in school at LSU. I have a lot of people asking for white letters in, so that the black side wall is out. I personally like white letters out, makes a vehicle look, Idk, more classy. What do you guys and gals think?

Black out, easier to keep clean. white letters look crappy if you don't keep em clean all the time.

I agree, but I try to clean my truck as often as I can.

Well, I've never seen any low pro tires with any color other than black on it...

I wish I could explain to all of you how the white letters or white walls are made so you could under stand it. But for the operator making that tire it is a nasty difficult tire to make. For those tires to cure out without any problem just about every part of that tires has to be perfect or it is scrap.
But to answer the question I would rather have the black wall.2003 Avalanche 4x4 110k mil.

Flame red 1997 Dodge ram
green 1993 ford ranger
white 2004 silverado
and i wouldnt let them get stained and look like crap..but if i had say black wheels or somthin like that id go with black out
