I hate this fad almost as much as the dual fender stripe thing people do nowadays.

When they spin they look like whitewalls.
Maybe if the car is white no thanks otherwise.

David those are stickers actually. You have to actually sand and prep the tire then apply rubber adhesive and the stickers smooth it out etc. but only get the vinyl ones not the cheap options. I like them personally it's a nice asthetic piece

I had them on my tires for a minute. My tires barely rub as it is, so with the added letters on the back I was always glueing them back on. But since my tires only last 6 months, they are gone now LOL. [URL= ]web page[/URL] [ 2015-11-25, 02:17 PM: Message edited by: Black88GT ]

My MT slicks and front runners kinda had them..i was 100% okay with it..
Street tires..not my cup of tea and yes i realize they have been doing that for decades
