    My opinion on the White letter thing is this ... On a "classic " Musclecar wheel like Cragar -SS ,Magnum 500, ect. I like Raised white letters showing. On Race wheels Like Weld,Centerline ,ect I like Black wall Unless you are running M+H or Hoosiers ect ...then white letters are Ok . I have seen exceptions to the rule though.......Just My :2cents:

    Check for Hankook H101s. Nice looking, inexpensive, and work great. (ran a best of 12.16 on them last year before I started playing with drag radials and slicks).
