I've always liked the white letter out. When I was a kid and was on a car lot, the white letter out SUVs/trucks always looked more special to me, like they were an off-road special edition or something. In fact I got General Grabbers over KO2s on my Raptor because BFG didn't make white letters in the size I wanted.

This was about 10 mins after I had 35s installed, so they still have some blue on there.

What do you guys think of white letters out from the factory on the Willys?
I do not see the point to having white letters if they are going to be mounted on the inside. I like white letters (takes me back to the 70's) but sometimes I rub the curb and then they look bad.

What I want to know is why do all the tires have digital print marks on the outside.. every single kind of tire now from factory it seems.. it drives me crazy.. I don't want to get out a brush.. im lazy

Haha well that makes two of us I guess :) TBH I normally wouldn't put white letters out, or hadn't really thought about it, but when the tire guy mounted these red letter out, I kinda liked the look and decided to keep it ! My only concern is them looking like crap as soon as they start getting beat up, and then I will probably swap them around.

You have me thinking about the Red/white combo. These may look good on my HellaYella Rubicon which also has red accents.
I also like the tread on these tires more so than on BFGs

My oldest Jeep still has raised white letters. My grandson has taken a liking to it.

I like white letters on classic cars only.

white letters out.

because if it has letters, they're supposed to be out. let them get messed up on the rocks; i don't care.

mounting white letters on the inside looks like the tires are mounted backward, to me. if you're going to do that, at least black them out and finish the look.
