Me, in Spring '77 - with my new C3:

The Starsky & Hutch haircut AND White Lettered Goodyears, was where it was at.

I think the white lettering draws too much attention from the car. The white letters are the first thing my eyes go to when looking at the car. And this is just my opinion of course, but wheel design and appearance are suppose to compliment the car, and not instantly draw your attention. However, if you like it go for it. What I think doesn't matter. A little philosophy here: Live your life for yourself. Not for what others think.

Most everyone does exactly what you did by highlighting the manufacture. I however chose a different route. Yours did come out nice though!

thanks for replying back! Good info

well I got the kit for here:

They give you the tire lettering, glue and directions on how to install. so pretty much everything you need although they do recommend that you buy acetone to clean the tires prior to install
