What would u guys think if I got whiteface tires when I get them black GTA rims for my car? I am going to get BFGoodrich Comp T/A tires for the new rims. You think whiteface letters would look kinda dumb on this kind of car?

just picture black crosslace rims instead of them stock rims

No, what you really need is a good set of whitewalls. j/k

Seriously though, I wouldnt put white letters on it. personally, I think the white letters went out with the rear window louvres. (no flames intenede, its just my opinion)

 

I have white letters. To each his own, but I like em. Here's a pic:

RWL looks good on 15" wheels, but looks extremely gay on 16" and larger.

I have BFG radial T/As on my 89 RS. I opted to have the black side out instead of the white letter. My advice to you is, buy a set, have them installed with white letter out, and then if you don't like it, have the tires removed and re-installed black side out...if possible...if not then with all the high performance driving I'm sure you do, the tires will wear out and you can buy a new set and have them installed black side out.

I have white letter tires on mine w/ 15" rims and I think it looks great. I do agree that they look bad on anything larger than 15s.

The black line is actually my silver Firebird emblem. It just didn't show up too well.
I liked the legs too, still have all that shiznit on video....

IMHO white letters look best on 15" wheels for 1st and 2nd gens. We all have our opinions...

another case of personal preference and what looks good with the wheels and paint job. I have RWL on my 15 camamaro with is probably the only white on the car because everything else is black. I've gotten lot's of comps but i probably wouldn't do it to a white bird. Check me out and let me know. Once again personal preference.
