    I just had mine flipped to black. Looks cleaner, I think, and a little less stock.

    For those of you with the white walls out.. or those of you thinking about going white walls out. If you rub your tires up against a curb everyonce in a while which we all do ... the black will start to wear down and you will see white. PUT THE BLACK SIDES OUT!!

    I think white letters looks good on any all sliver wheels, or white trucks. Also i think the only letters that actually look good are the bfgs, on my jeep i have letters out on wrangler ats and i think it looks like shit, but it needs new tires soon

    I've seen both look sick. It totally depends on the truck and the wheels.

    Black out for sure, white is terrible. White out is something my grandpa would do.

    wwo for the most part for me, the bigger the tire the more i lean to wwi. stock up to 35s wwo, but then again that depends on how "square" the tire is, stock BFG are square and super swamper gumbos are round. so the rounder the tire is, the more i lean to wwi. wwo is a cleaner look and the wwi is a meaner look. then again it depends on how trashed your truck is, kinda like putting gold daytons on a $200 ford escort. cars are always wwi unless its a classic. buy the tires you like, lean them next to truck, snap pics of both sides, and decide.

    White out!!! I have the Destination A/T's and they look better with white out!! They look really good when the white lettering is white as snow, makes the whole truck look cleaner as well!! Black out does look a little more agressive but I still love white out!!
