It will be time for new tires come spring for my pre-gen GP wheels (16X7) and my chrome wheels (17X7) later in the summer as well. I've always wanted tires that have white or yellow lettering, but I can't seem to find any. Obviously I want tires that perform good too.

The only one I know of is the Goodyear Eagle #1 Nascar tire.

Anyone have suggestions? Pics?

I heard white sidewall cost lot of money than normal tires. I know you are looking for letter. I forgot who did it. I remember whoever use pen write on it to show off. Maybe white ink? It has been while lol

I havent really heard of any good tire lettering kits to make the letters yellow, or white, etc. It makes sense there isn't many tires with this due to cost. Anyone have or know much about the Goodyear Eagle #1 mentioned above?

I think it is discontinued. I try google it and find this under tirerack and some tires website. All not found. Pretty sure it is gone now.

white paint pen over the letters on your tires, will last until it gets wet

perfect for car shows from what i've seen

I always liked those Goodyears you linked. I just wish they didn't have NASCAR on the side. I'm a NASCAR fan, but it kinda ruined the look of the tires.

Look what I find. My apt neighbor have those tires!!! Well this 95-98 Chevy Monte Carlo has been sitting abandoned on parking lot more than 6 months. Little low air now. The white letter is getting fade out too. How much do you want for this? It has a locking lug nut so it is impossible to steal it :lol:
