false they look awesome.

I think because the wheels are black it gives some definition in the wheel arches.

You’re right, the white lettering looked good on the black wheels and against the white paint.

I saw this one at lunch today. I am in love with the S Coupe.

I used to see S-Classes all the time around my old place of employment. They have a lot of road presence!

Let me know when you’ll be in Colorado and I’d be happy to make this happen.

I’m not sure if it was paint, but it wasn’t a sticker. There should be plenty of DIY tire lettering guides out there.

It took decades for us to get rid of whitewalls and white lettering, and now they're back?! Also, your GTX is the coolest car in the sequence.

Check out TredWear Tire Graphics. They're rubber stickers but they are really really strong. I had some on for about a year before I bought new tires. I thought that I'd try to pull them off just to see if I could. Those things were like welded on.
