    I'm fixing to buy some BFG's. Can't decide if I want letters out or just the black wall. Can anyone provide pictures of what it looks like with white lettering?

    Funny, I was just jumping online to post the SAME question. I do like the looks of the white letters on some colors of truck but not so much on others.

    My truck is MGM and I think it will look nice.

    Thoughts?

    Sometimes I like the look, other times...not so much. I guess it depends on the tire and color of the truck?

    Here's mine I just had them installed couple weeks ago and I had never had the white's turned out on any truck I've owned so said what the hell why not.

    Hate white letters. I had the dealer flip the tires before I bought. I could not see dealing with the crappy white letters for 3 years. Here is a pic of before.

    I went with white letters out but I think it all depends on the truck. My truck is Barcelona red/black with no chrome or badges and Im glad I went white letters out. I'm running 265/75/16 Mickey Thompson baja stz.
