White letter in or out on FX4

Ok, I bought a set of BFG AT's to replace the ones I had before on my 02 FX4. It's black. Had the white letters facing out before (came that way). Anyone have any pics on the black wall facing out with the Alcoa rims? On a black truck would be a good comparison, but any will do. I'm not asking you to tell me what to do, just let me see how they look so I can decide what I like.

White letters out if you aren't going to have them chewed up by rocks.

Black out, Nate. Easier to care for to my mind. Seems like the white letters getting dingy always bothered me -- but the tire being generally dirty didn't.

So, since I mounted my current tires white in, I'm a happier man when I neglect my truck...

I think black out looks more "serious" also. But that's my personal bias. White out looks "dressier" -- but my truck is no longer very "dressy".

In fact, it's getting downright battered looking. I love it!

She still doesn't understand it, but she doesn't interfere, lol.

She get's the whole offroad driving part, but doesn't understand doing it to a level where it damages the truck in any way. She's sane, of course. I'm not. Just one of those "opposites attract" type of things, lol.

Who cares? I don't have Alcoa's. Besides, I know Nate personally -- he expects me to be contrary...

With side walls like that I would definitely have the black out.
