    Just an opinion poll...
    I'm buying new tires for my TJ.
    Should the white letters go in or out ?
    I'm leaning toward in.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!

    Back in the day white letters were the “in” thing to show off your favorite brand. Today it’s one more thing to keep clean or it will look crappy dirty. Black side out 4 me

    Thanks for reaching out!
    I think they are stock rims.
    They are gray and brushed aluminum.

    paid cash for it.
    I agree with some others that it has to do with the wheels and the overall look of the Jeep. If it’s set up as a rock crawler, black out for sure. If it’s a fully restored, stock TJ or if it is embodying an OEM look, white letters out - especially if they are classics like BFGs, will help project that look. However if you’re running something plain Jane like a Bridgestone or a Firestone, why bother letting the world know that you saved a few bucks on tires. My .02 worth. It all depends on the look of the Jeep.
