Cant deicide on white letters out or black out on BFG's

Just got in a truxx 3/1 leveling kit to put on a 07 tundra dbl cab (slate metallic) with stock TRD 18" wheels and using BFG at's 305/65-18 tires. I just cant deicide to mount tires with white letters out or black side out. Maybe yall can help me think what will look best. I have tinted windows and a weather guard low pro tool box, truck is not debadged. I was going to get the tire shop to mount two tires each way and put on truck to help deicide.

You must go with Black out unless you are getting paid by BFG to advertise for them.

WHITE OUT!

The truck looks more manly with the letters out. The black out look looks like some young punk's ride. My truck is white out and people stay back because of it!

Talking WHite out

White out looks 100 times better on a truck. On a car black out but if you have a truck and have white out it not only adds beef but adds style. Low profile tires, different story. If you had like 275/55/20 then maybe black out but 65/18 or around that, sorry white out overrules, black out if your a panzy and you want to hang diamonds and roses from your rear view mirror.

If you put white out and keep them clean - there's nothin cooler.... if you leave them dirty all the time, you look tacky!

I have always liked the letters out. I remeber when having a blackwall tire meant they were the cheap ones.

White Out - I also remember when black meant cheap, and do agree with white out looking classy. I use Scrubbing Bubbles on my white letters (BFG AT) and they stay nice.

Westley's Bleche White works the best for white letters or white walls. No scrubbing and you can see the dirt and brake dust wash away on it's own.
