I had them on Firestone years ago but there was a recall got a whole set free.
For me the letters on the new model seem to distract from the overall design, but up close sure looks ok.
Plus a road rash would be rough.

I like it-I think it's a great look. Very trendy as well!

De-grades the classy look of the C7 in my opinion.
I like white lettering on the C2s and 3s.

I was thinking of putting them on my Arctic White, but I love using tire dressings, and I'm afraid how they'll look after a handful of applications.
Looks nice.

I think it cheapens the look of the car.

I do like the look on this Corvette but you're right. My 1974 AMC Matador X (see below) that I sold 2 years ago, and a 1975 Bricklin I owned many years ago when I lived in FL. RWL tires were the 'thing' in the 60's & 70's.

It doesn't work FOR ME, but if it works FOR YOU, that's all that counts. Asking for affirmation after the fact is bound to disappoint. You don't really need anyone else's opinion, particularly after you've gone to the trouble of doing it.

I like them a lot. So much so that I am considering doing it to my Vette. I think it especially looks great on a torch red car with black rims, which is what I have also. I went to the web site you posted and saw that there are 2 different types of letters, semi permanent peel and stick and permanent raised rubber. Which did you use? I would also like to know more about the installation, was it difficult? Did you have to remove the tires? Also after they were installed how durable do they look to you? Do you think they will hold up to the abuse a tire goes through? Thanks and good luck with them.
