Out if you've got rally wheels or the later aluminum wheels.

all white letter tires are crap.
buy good tires and spray paint white letters on them with a stencil.
I'm thinking of painting Goodyear on my Sumitomo's

I wish I could buy white lettered tires here but the only 15 inch tires over here are light Pickup tires. I am trying to get a set (4) Firestone Indy tires and will run WHITE LETTERS out.
