White letters gets my vote, it will look good with the white trim also the with letters on the doors and break up the black on the truck and wheels.

White letters out all the way, if not you need to black out the white letters so they don't show from under the truck, that looks tacky....

Do what looks best to you. Years ago, I favored white letters out, but now, I would rather see blackwalls.

Re: So I ordered new mickey thompson tires ? Letters out ? Or blackwall ?
The mickey thompson s/t in white must be on the outside. This is a special case of white letters to the outside for me. Most all others would be put to the inside.

Re: So I ordered new mickey thompson tires ? Letters out ? Or blackwall ?
WHITE LETTERS OUT!! LOL in all seriousness I am true to the time of our trucks and love that muscle look of the white letters. I've always run them on all of my vehicles. From my 2006 GMC CC Duramax to the '72 C10, which just had a new set of 275/60-15 Cooper Cobras installed. Most importantly though, do what you enjoy. That's what really makes the truck your own.

Re: So I ordered new mickey thompson tires ? Letters out ? Or blackwall ?
If these tires were another brand or whatever I would not even think about it but Mickey Thompson is a cool nameplate as far of the history of our old trucks , I will probly put them blackwall back in the day I prefered white letters , the Mickey Thompson name would fit my motief I have going on with this truck though ,,,,,,

Re: So I ordered new mickey thompson tires ? Letters out ? Or blackwall ?
I think the way it looks right now with the thin white wall looks best....maybe lower it a little more. However, since your set on changing the look....go BLACKWALL. If it gets old...flip them around.

Re: So I ordered new mickey thompson tires ? Letters out ? Or blackwall ?
You know I probly would lower it more but we have never ending road construction here in the town where I live its frikkin ridiculous they hire contractors that take 5 years to do a job that should take 6 months , then soon as thats done THEY DO IT AGAIN I cant lower it any more or I could not even ride it ,,,
