Default Pic Request: Letters out on Black Wheels

Hi! Just ordered rugged ridge black wheels for my black Jeep. Can't decide whether to put the letters in or out.
I see plenty turned in, but not too many turned out.
thanks!

I always buy tires with no white lettering. I personally don't like that look

IMO when the letters are turned out all you see when the tire is spinning is a white flash and every thing else black.

I like my white letting out too. I don't know why I never liked the black lettering??

I think it looks good when everything is nice and clean, but if you don't keep the tires shined up, the white letters look kinda brown and dingey most of the time.
I went with black out on my next set. I think I like it better. I don't have any clean pics with the all black yet.

It's to each his own. If you like white out, run it like that.

Agreed on the white letters out. My next set of 33" tires - 275/70R18 will be the same. Either BFG A/T or GY Duratracs, can't wait, but can't decide on which tire either!
