    I like the letters out, but I'm an old school guy. Most are hidden these days.

    It can look good either way. To me it looks a little cleaner with just a black wall. But that's just me.

    Seen many of these threads. My favorite response I ever saw was "unless your over the age of 65, then white letters go on inside". I tend to agree. Lol

    I removed my brand new BFG's (white letters) and installed some Toyo Open Country A/T's that have NO white lettering at all. I don't even like seeing the white letters on the inside.

    Just my opinion, but the RWL's look good on X-Runners! :D
