    Out. I like a little contrast. I think even if I had a black truck with black wheels, I'd go with white out.

    I think black walls look better on a silver truck. I have Toyo Open Country AT on almost the same truck as you.

    My wife likes white letter. I like the black wall for easy cleanup. Keeping the white letters clean is a PITA.

    CB? Did it sit right next to the 8-track?:D I wonder if any working 8-tracks still exist?

    Funny. I had white out with my BFG AT KO and my wife hates white out. But I will agree that they're a PITA to keep clean (even with Bleche-Wite). So after going white out, I'm now a black out only kind of guy. That's not to say I don't like the look of white out on some trucks.

    To me it depends on the wheel. If the wheel is black then blackwall tire.

    If it is a chrome wheel then white letters out.

    I'm thinking of getting myself black wheels for christmas and will switch my tires to black out.

    LOL! , I'm only 47.I never had an 8 Track! I only go back to the cassette deck era.
    BTW here's an 8 track on Ebay FS can't believe they are even around.
    http://cgi.ebay.com/MOTOROLA-8-TRAC...pt=Vintage_Electronics_R2&hash=item35ae4c792f


    My first vehicle was a '73 Chevy Truck and it only had an A.M. Radio.
    I ripped that thing out and used it for target practice then put in a AMFM w/cassette player.........

    I was joking about the tennis ball......

    I like white out..... but my truck is pretty plain jane so the white letters out just adds a little 'oddity' in a sea of plain janes.
