How to black out white letter tires?
I just had some new BFG's put on and I forgot to tell the guy to put the white letters on the inside. I'm certainly not going to pay to have it done so I'm looking for a good way to turn the white letters black.
I've tried a few things and none of them have worked. A sharpie doesn't even work! A guy at the local auto parts store said he heard of guys using interior spray paint... didn't work! I even tried flat black rustoleum... didn't work! but it did look the best for a few minutes. As soon as you start moving it peels right off.
Anybody??

Look at a local autoparts store for tire dressing. I have't looked for it in a long time, but it used to be available. It's kinda like a cross between latex and leather dye. It works great because its pliable enough to flex with the rubber. I dyed my dad's whitewalls with it when I was in high school, he was not impressed!

dude it is only like 20-30 bucks to get them mounted the other way and rebalanced. You are going to spend that driving to every autoparts place in town and buying tire paint.
