    1985 called and said "it's 2018, IN!".

    Seriously, it's your truck and your choice. No right or wrong answer on subjective matters.

    More work to keep the letters white if you ask me, especially if you use a tire treatment.

    Do you have any full shots of your truck with both wheels/tires? Was thinking about going back to the trd "beadlocks" on my new one, but can't really decide.

    That's racist. It's 2018: black rubber and white letters CAN live together. Enough of your segregationist ways. White letters OUT!

    It depends on the wheel in my opinion. I think some wheels look better letters out and other black out.

    I did out and now after 30k miles, the white is basically impossible to see once dirty and hard to keep white. Next time, Im gonna have them on the inside.

    DO "YOUR" thing. It should be what YOU like --not everybody else.
    Years ago I liked them out -- not anymore! Not that my likes/dislikes should matter for you.
    Is it your truck or "theirs"?
    One more thing -tire makers should offer the tires for less if you run letters "out" as you are "advertising" for them for free!

    Are those the LTX AT2? I had a set and they were great tires. Rode quiet and smooth , excellent mud,snow, rain tire. I think I gained a few mpg switching to them .

    Seconded on the green. That's a great looking color. I had the bronze version of those wheels on my 2nd gen, thinking about replacing my pro wheels with the same ones, but black this time. Just hard to get a feel for the look without just pulling the trigger.

    With black wheels i like white out. With any other color i like in. Just helps break up the black tire and wheels IMO. Plus it helps with my zebra theme i have going.:D

    I love the new pro wheels! I have them on my third gen now. What color is your pro, any pics?

    Mine is midnight black metallic also. I may feel differently about the wheels with some actual tires on it, but still kind of on the fence. May be nice to keep these wheels and street tires around for longer road trips where we're not doing any trails. Significantly quieter than my KM2s ever were.38519096_10156555046888142_6079757830779305984_o.jpg

    With BFG's I like white out. Some Westleys(now black magic) bleach white keeps the letters looking brand new.

    I think it looks awesome with those wheels. I almost got that exact truck! Decided to cheap out and just get a sport, I was set on black with manual and the closest pro was easy cost and was going to be like $1,400 just to ship it. Such a nice truck man!
