    I looked at these but there is blue in it. They are not all completely red. I think the sharpie it is. I got a sharpie that seems to be the right for this application. It would probably fade quickly...but who cares, I will try anyway. Then flip back to black.

    This rubber cleaner and brush combo works very well. I'd probably do that before trying the sharpie.

    20250531_145015.jpg I guess my obsession with red started with the SPC's and I didn't want to pay the higher price on the JBL and took matters in my on hands and went to town on the Black SPC's. 20250531_144935.jpg

    Full unit....what y'all think? Too much?....black side better. This will fade eventually.

    Thanks. I was worried that the wife was going to hate it but gave it a thumbs up too. Something different for a change.

    Thanks Guys! I am glad you all think it looks good. I just couldn't stomach the price on the general grabbers with the red letters and then on top of that they are MT tires. The K02s have at least 10K left in them so will see how this goes. 20250531_145031.jpg

    I dig it. I wish Toyota would bring back radiant red.

    edit: I suppose one could wrap their Toyota in 3m gloss hot rod red though. :notsure:
