Which one?

Alright, with all the latest craze about black-walls or white-walls it all comes down to the colors on your truck. Well, I'm going to be changing the color (partly) and adding some new color (mesh grill) and want to know what ya'll think..........White-walls or black?

Wonder who you're getting the mesh grille from

For tires larger than low profile, I like white out.

On black rims, I like the white in regardless.

Yep, stole it off your truck and onto mine. I think once I get the paint, everything will just get pulled together, especially with that grill now, and match.

I voted for white because of the wheels. The only thing white letter look bad on is black wheels. I had them do my front tire black and my rear white just to see which looked better lol...ended up going black with the black wheels...the white looked too 'bling'

That's a pretty damn good chop man, but you're going to have serious problems in sand w/ those MTs... not tryin'g to shoot you down, but that's just how it is around here.

Back on subject, as long as you keep the white letters clean, they will look really good.

Yeah, It's all chopped:rims, tires, lift, lenses, headlights, paint and grill. I heard that the sand eats M/T's but will and aired down A/T work? I'm assuming your sand is pretty much the same as Pensacola, kind of soft and powdery? I may just have to take it easy. It's not a 4x4 either.......

Thats some great work with photoshop.

As for aired down A/T's, they do very well in the sand. That is what I have on my Ranger.

HA HA, man here's the original. I'm so glad I have a job to make my truck the way I want it. There are some imperfections with the "chop" but I won't dwell on them. I think white walls would look better once I get the paint done but I have to find a hole in my uncle's calendar for me to get a spot in his shop to work on it. But for the time being, my theme is shadow gray, black and chrome so the black walls look fine.
