Tire Lettering/Tagging

Stumbled across this last night. I bought some paint pens for my tires for when I install my new wheels but this may be a option too.

Another odd fad....Just because you put lettering on your tire sidewall doesnt mean you have an automatic RaceKar now....LoL..

**Sarcasm
Could be fun and a bit unique
Not at all "unique" now.....Everyone and their G'ma are putting Tire Decals on their sidewalls to make their car look like a RaceKar...Its kinda Bleh after seeing it all over the place...
I think it's cool, but you'll get a lot of hate if your car looks bone stock

Most definitely you will if it's bone stock. But I mean the way to achieve these ranges in price. From you're regular 20$ pen or whatever to actual lettering stickers that cost upwards of 200$
I find that it only works well on stanced cars with aggressive wheel or on cars as wild as this one:

Definitely, It's more of a race car type of thing. You don't see regular cars driving around getting grocerys with tire lettering lol

All over SoCal area.....Thats why I say its NOT unique....a lor of ricers & wannabes have tire decals now...thinking they have a RaceKar.....lol
Lol that sucks haha

Down here where I am in Toronto... I can't lie, there's a **** load of rice and garbage to be honest. But you don't really see the tire lettering ;)
IMHO I don't think it looks too bad using a 1" tire manufacture tag. My example photo attached. It would last longer than a paint pen. Grumpy's iM looks good.

on stock wheels it's gonna look dumb, at least get some race car wheels lol.
See on that particular STI it looks pretty good. It looks like a track car. But like @blueBallz said, you can't put them on stock wheels.. that's just weird.
Yes I agree not to put them on the stock wheels. Thanks for the input.
if you wanna be cheap you can always get a white paint marker and just outline the lettering already on there for like $5. that's what i did on my SC, it lasted for about a half year until it got completely rubbed because i had stretched tires.
Once those get dirty though and you scrub the tire, they come off easily too though don't they ?
no it's oil based paint, it's the same as spray paint, just in a pen.
Ahhh, can't go wrong then. Probably gonna buy one to troll my buddies cars at this point...
