With BFG, the profile alone is already like giving them free advertising. Furthermore, it isn’t like you can’t see BF Goodrich on the sidewalk if it’s in black.

Isn't it Blue lettering out now in fashion?

Black or white, no colours.

Otherwise there would be a multicolour version before you'd know it.

This blue that some of you are talking about it's isn't the blue tyre soap stuff when new is it?
I suppose you mean actual blue lettering?

I know when they are new there is like a blue soap on the white lettering, I assume it's a kind of release agent for the lettering, or a similar purpose. Diesels Lives Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️

To me it has to be in.
White lettering on the outside makes me think American Jeep, so it has to be in as there is nothing more British than a Defender. 2016 Defender Landmark 90
