    I like both. I currently have Nittos, they only come in black both sides, before that I had BFGs, they were white out.
    I would say "nice" tires like BFG, GoodYear etc, white out, (show off a little) but unknown cheap korean made stuff, white in.

    I prefer white lettering out because it reminds me of the baja race trucks..

    I like lettering out, everyone I see has black tires. It's something different, and adds to the look.

    Out.

    When I had my blacked out Jeep Wrangler, I hated seeing white lettering on the outside of them, vowed i'd never do that on a vehicle of mine. After I got my Tacoma and started looking at different setups, I honestly think it looks great, gives it a really sporty look to it with the right set of tires (I prefer the BFG KO AT's). Just my .02 :)

    I agree 100%. It depends on the look you're after. Most likely, the serious off-roader (or those that want to appear as one) will opt for no lettering or turning it in. Those looking for a "sportier / hot rod" look will most likely go for lettering out IMO.

    In the end, everyone should go for what they want, not what someone else thinks they should do. It comes down to personal preference and personalizing the way YOU want. Both ways look good with some thought put into it.
