i'm old skool so letters out on my truck and on my car..

87 V20 Scottsdale · 02-06-2011, 08:16 PM

Always out, first with the BFG's when the truck still had 1/2 ton running gears, and now with Wild Country RVT's on 3/4 ton set-up.

slammed427 · 02-06-2011, 08:33 PM

It depends on the truck and the tire size for me. Anything 33" and up is letters out for me.
The 67 I was building had letters out, I loved the look on that truck. My 74 was letters in.

bbbc10 · 02-06-2011, 09:46 PM

Slammed '87 · 02-06-2011, 10:09 PM

I say RWL out as well, as long as you keep em clean, and don't curb them. This is one of my old '87's with BFG's.

KQQL IT · 02-06-2011, 10:27 PM

Same size gets letters out.
Big and littles letters in.
245s on 8s up front 295s on 10s out back

I bought some 1.5" spacers for the rear, they were perfect I will post pictures soon.

Thanks,

I have a Flip kit out back with a 2" drop spring, and removed the overload and the next one up from that spring.

In the front, I have a 2.5" drop spindle, 2" drop spring with half a coil cut off of it.

Heres a picture of my truck with letters in.. This picture is from the PO when the truck was still in cali...

BigBlocksRule · 02-08-2011, 08:50 AM

Letters out.
Doesn't matter that much, though...all the BFG T/A street tires I ran were worn out at 20K, so you'll get to try the other way in a couple of years

I like the letters out on rallys and in on everything else.

Here is a pic when I painted my rallys red. My truck is jacked up, it does not sit that high.

Eyegore · 02-08-2011, 10:16 AM

Belly Buttons - IN (see Mexicantruck thread), White lettering OUT!! lol

85X3 · 02-08-2011, 10:25 AM

Letters in. At 60-70mph, letters "out" look like whitewalls. Also, Whatever YOU like is what you should run.

jchav62 · 02-08-2011, 10:40 AM

OUT!!
