Default Would this look cool or no?

I always wondered if raised white lettering on a S197 mustang would look as cool as the classics. Has anyone done this before? Opinions?
Thanks!

I've seen it before, looked pretty good actually. Saw some threads on it where people used some kind of tire paint, but said they also had problems with it coming off after a while and looking real splotchy.

I've seen one like that - it was black, and the tires were the Goodyear Eagle GTII's. Weird - I just saw it last weekend......black rims also.

BUT - that said - I immediately liked it. Gave it that old NASCAR look. LOL.

also, it would only look good if the wheels were either 17's or 18's. but yeah, it makes it look more muscular imo

I'm unaware if they sell tires like that with the white lettering. Those ones I posted were done by the owner of the car. Used some sort of white paint. It did fade after a while and he had to reapply but it does look killer, especially on a "classic" looking car.
