I think it looks better. Makes the car//wheel//tire sportier looking.
Thanks for posting- last week my wife & I were talking about something to break up all the black. For now, our wheels are black.
you're welcome... if you want a photoshop of your car, post a picture of it on this thread and I an do an example of how it would look
thanks for the input guys! White letters get a bad rap around here in threads I've read, but I think they looks great on the 15" old school painted wheels. Maybe not on the larger aluminum wheels though
You can get a white letter marker it's like a soft chalk/paint mix. It lasts for a long time I know truck drivers that have used it on their trucks. We put more miles on a truck in a year than most people put on a car in a lifetime. So if it will last a year traveling 130,000 for solos and team trucks going 280,000 miles you should be OK.
Think the white letters will look great on your car but don't forget tire shine to keep them looking new. I suggest Meguiars Hot Shine. A great product.

16s are available but if you want them your gonna have to get like 295s for bfg and firehawk 500s goodyear does nascar but those are 225s i haven't looked up wider sizes, but i will.
EDIT: the goodyear nascar ones only come in 225/60/16 thats pretty narrow for a 8in wide tire
