I really miss white letters. Thought about doing this to my white C4. Curious to see how they hold up. What did you use?

There from Tire Stickers. They hold up well. A lot of people get really big letters when they do them. It cost me about $90.00 for all 4 tires. There made out of rubber and you glue them on. The pictures are with something like 100 miles,

Tire lettering pens appear to start at about 12 bucks on Amazon and come in several colors. Im guessing you will need to touch them up on ocassion.

There's a couple of C4s on the forum with the white letters. A red and a black car for sure. It's different and not for everyone but IMCO it works.
