Painted White Tire Lettering
 
I've noticed that many american muscles and jeeps have those white lettering of the brand on the wheels, but never on a jdm car unless it's a straight up track car.
i've always thought about doing this project:
Painted Tire Lettering (GT Style) - Team Integra

what do you guys think? stupid or worth a go?

Do it, if it looks good I might do the same

I always like how they look spinning. Still need to see with low profile tires though.

might look silly if your z isnt completley tracked out.

Thats what I was thinking as well, someone should at least try it tho. worst mods have been done, lol

To me.... it looks too "80ish". Heck with painted lettering on the tires, all you need now is a T-roof, a cowboy hat, and a vanity license plate that says "BANDIT".

(imho)

A little too NASCAR for me.

NewYorkJon34 03-11-2011 10:43 AM

hey Alex, maybe I should paint the V12's, lol

just get a couple of paint pens. If it doesn't look right, just paint it black.

I did this to my old Gixxer I liked it. I dunno how it would look on a mostly stock Z though.

cheshirecat 03-11-2011 11:31 AM

Yeah- I did this to my CBR. Very common in the sportbike world.

kenchan 03-11-2011 11:50 AM

no way~~. not for me. :D

but yah, if it's a track car go for it! :)

Looks cool on a race car with a pretty bare sidewall, but I wouldn't do it on the street.
