Featured Interesting Tires .... !

I saw this beautiful machine in Cold Lake just a couple of weeks ago. The tires really blew me away so I thought I'd share this with the community. When the time comes I will consider this look for my convertible....

Cheers!

I've always been a fan of white letters. We had a thread on these same stick on letters a few months ago. can be found on places like ebay.

Oh neat. Obviously they are new to me!

I didn't feel them to see if they were a paint or were old-school raised white letters? If the owner happened to show I would liked to ask him or her for some history. Perhaps he/she and I will cross paths before I wrap up this contract?

Way way back, I remember buying a white tire letter stick for the lettering on my old BSA. It was kind of like
a plumbers putty stick, and you traced over the letters. Never lasted long but looked great.

As Michael said we had a thread on these stick on letters a while back. Think you can get some and put em on your Z51 Vert now Dik.

Bump! Does anyone have some experience they can share with either the rubber raised letters or the tire paint sticks?

I think this will be one of my winter mods along with purchasing/installing black wheel nuts.

I have to avoid doing tire letters as even with the “mask” and “eyes”,
I'm getting way too close for it becoming Lightning McQueen.

Mark from Calgary has them on his car. He travelled with us this year on our Rocky Mountain Cruise. I'll reach out to him and see if he can let us know about where he got the lettering.

Hi Paul ask me to reach out on raised rubber tire letters. They can be a little time consuming but very easy to do.
The letter package came from west coast corvette in California appox $100.00 for all 4 tires. The adhesive is a form of super glue. This is my corvette with them on.

Hi Paul I replied on the tire letting, if I can be of any more help on the prep of tire lettering let me know thank you Max deward.

Hey Max, Paul. Thanks for the replies.
My plan is to whiten or cover the existing black letters on my OEM tires. Im not sure which way to go just yet but your post is really interesting. Thanks for your time, your post and link to your supplier!
.... a great community.
Cheers!
