Post by REDDERthanyours »

and what kind of tyres are they?

i've been thinking about painting the lettering on mine - this just confirms it!

i don't think they've been painted as a DIY job, i'm pretty sure that's how that particular tyre comes. ;)

i did that to my tyres, i just used touch up paint though, only lasts a few weeks. you can go one better by getting heat resistant paint in a can, and mask off the lettering with tape and spray te tyre, then bake the paint on with a heatgun or a blowdryer etc.

i think its the same as getting white walls...just take to a tyre specialist and ask if they do it.

White paint pens for writing on tyre walls used to be really easy to come by. I think I used them on most of my classic cars.
