Raised white letters or blackwall

[Duster Garage]

I'm putting new tires on my 71 Duster. Considering raised white letters. Is that look dead from the past or making a comeback?

While I completely understand your quest for opinions, it really comes down to YOUR preference. It's your car. Do what pleases you.

Every car has it's own look, that one is Black out !

I prefer letters out. But do whatever works for you.

I've always said if a tire has white letters, they go out.

 

[Hellrats]

I like letters but your cars awesome without. Tough call.

 

[RustyRatRod]

Flip one around white letter and you can see both ways.

What size of wheels and tires are on it now? Looks great.

So many white letters turn brown. Your car looks great blackwall out!

Great-looking Duster! I don't think you can go wrong either way. The avatar 72 Demon has no white letters while my 71 Demon 340 has RWL tires.

While I like letters out on our 67 cuda, the black out suits yours i think due to the black stripes.

So many white letters turn brown. Your car looks great blackwall out!

Michael Jackson was a brown letter that turned white, though.

I'll be devils advocate- red lines.

Ok, time to make some people mad, but I’m going with BLUE letters out!

Never wash the protective blue coating off of white letters out, it’s great when you hear someone say “Wow, you just put new tires on your car” and meanwhile they are already 5 years old LOL.

Here’s a good comparison. I deep down wanted white letters out but I initially went with black. It bothered me after a few weeks so I had them swapped. Kinda dumb but these tires are going to be on there for a long time.

As someone who owns your Duster's twin, I prefer blackwall. I want them looking at my car, not my tires!

White letters are a pain to keep clean.
Gave it up, much happier now.

14" tires with odd patterns of letters, like in 3 separate areas, or 2 one word sections, those are a must in.

White letters or Redlines.

Chrome or light wheels, letters out. Grey or dark wheels, No whites. Body colored and dog dish also no whites. (although my 66 had polished aluminum wheels and no whites. It's like any car older than 67 get's no whites. It's all personal preference and what looks good to you.

Factory rally wheels white letters look OK. After market wheels black unless they say Hoosier

 

[340six]

Black side out. Looks good and ekeep clean looking

I prefer white letters out on my stock Rallye's and Road Wheels Magnum 500's for the OEM polyglass sort of look, but black walls out on my aftermarket wheels.

 

[6PKRTSE]

A few more.

First 2, definitely out, if ever made again.
Last one, not sure, definitely unique.
