Don't believe they offer white-letter tire, I may be wrong.
I tried painting mine with some aftermarket tire paint,looked good for about 2wks, then started to look dingy & I didn't have time to keep up on them, so have all black now.

The paint just got greyish after a few weeks, if you tried to scrub clean, it would flake off around the edges.If you had the time every few weeks to touch up,it would be o.k.
Stock springs,not lowered.I have the 18"wheels.

I was also interested in RWL's tires - all my searches came up with abuot 5-7 companies that make RWL's performance tires BUT they are for the 60/70's cars (15/16") wheels, etc.

I wrote BFG and asaked 'why' before my car even arrived...I really like the T/A radials(have bought at least half a dozen sets- no problems whatsoever)...the response I got was they were not available due to speed ratings...maybe BS, who knows- but it stands to reason I guess a special sidewall compound and or thinner sidewalls might be needed for cooler running at high speeds...and any extra 'color plies' might not be a plus...I sure do miss the RWL look though- if someone starts popping out 255~275 17's, they will make a killing- speed rated or not, folks will buy them...I know I would...
