Google 'tyre paint' and take your pick, a steady hand and a couple of hours graft, but yes IMO too white lettering is best innermost!.... Whistle If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!!

Halfrauds do whitening pens to touch up the white lettering, might need a couple of coats though .
Brightend the lettering on mine up a treat , word of caution tho dont kerb them as it smears. Ask me how I know

White lettering should be left to the Yank street cruisers along with number plates cut to within an inch of their lives and wearing short sleeved shirts with ties! 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS..

Whites in for me Thumbs Up

An old friend of mine bought one of those pens to make the lettering on his bike tyres white, it looked alright to start but soon started to flake of and then just looked a mess! Russell

They come with or without, think the ones with are a quid or so dearer per wheel. My chap had none in stock so ordered 5 with white lettering, the supplier sent 4 with and one without.......... Censored !
