I doesn't look too bad on the black car with black wheels. It would look better if there was a red edge on the wheels. It's the old school look without going overboard.

Well golly gee Joe, thanks 
Being as old as I am its hard to keep up with you whipper snappers but I try.
Right now I'm trying to decide on 3/4" or 1" white letters for my Hankooks with the orange logo, leaning to the 1" Always wanted to do it but the price seems a little outrageous for a few pieces of rubber
But I liked yours, but only on black wheels

Back in the late 60's early 70's we put white letter tires on everything,they looked great,if you couldn't afford the tires we would buy paint sticks to letter them.i like them.

Looks good on the black on black.
Might not work with all colors.
In the day I used a special chalk pen to redo the letters. Like a grease pen. It was a maintenance thing so done often if wanting it to look uniform. Mid 60's on a GTO.

I don't hate it, but I don't like it either, and I wouldn't do it to any of my vehicles I've owned. Cheapens the C6"s good looks. It puts it in the class of a mustang.
It looks right on a classic muscle car or maybe a Nascar,

Off track but I have watched videos on this trend, how some people can use these tire lettering pens and think they look good is beyond me, sloppy as hell.
The problem for me is the cost of the stickers, $140 for some rubber letters seems excessive
NSF PS buying mine today

Looks great! I have always really liked CLEAN white letter tires. I have some raised white letter outline Goodyear Wranglers on my 2014 F-150 truck.
