    Mine is from treadwear.com. Same idea. Wanted something different. They will get dirty but come relatively clean with some simple green. Only thing is, cannot take off. Really got to end up sanding them if ya want them removed. I have another set of wheels, so can go back and forth when I'm sick of it.

    He didn't ask for everyone's subjective opinion on how they look, he has eyes, he's said he likes the look, no one cares if you think it's trashy or NASCAR-Y or whether your car should have lots of mods or not. He simply asked for their ease of use and longevity. Good god people.

    I didn't use tire stickers. I actually painted the raised letters on my tires with a paint pen. I didn't want the look of the big tire letters and the original logo on the tire seemed the perfect size so I went for it. I think it gives it a small aggressive touch while maintaining the class. It fades over time but even faded still looks good. I just re-paint them every year while my winter setup is on. Takes like 30min.

    tirestickers.com set

    takes a couple hours to install right. you will need to keep extra glue on hand because the edges peel up. works best on straight sidewalls.

    I think they looked OK, especially with black wheels. I had done the tire paint but it doesnt last

    I had them on. You have to make sure the tire is super clean and use alot of glue and keep some extra especially if you have smaller tires the edges tend to peel up because the lack of tire and the fact they almost hit the ground when driving. I daily drive my car and after about 3 months they started to crack and not look as good. They looked good on my car with the exterior mods and wrap but got sick of the upkeep and one completely flew off at some point so I just tore them all off yesterday and rolling without them again. I feel like they would last longer if its a car you dont daily drive and it rarely sees harsh conditions. Its a cool thing on the right car but definitely not a permanant thing

    Agreed, some cars I see with the widebody kits and over the top wings/aero they look cool on. On an OEM looking car they look really out of place.

    To me, modding is all about being tasteful. The wonderful thing about taste is that its subjective, and in that regard, anything can be tasteful.

    Except tire lettering.
