Black wall or white letters out on Rally wheels? Give your opinion or post a picture - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Onebean · 05-30-2017, 03:31 PM

I picked up a set of 15x8 5 lug rallys, and my Cooper Cobra tires arrived today. Now the question is black wall or white letters out. I'm leaning toward black wall out because my truck is faded original paint, nothing fancy. What would you do?

Feel free to post up pictures with white letters or black walls out.

I have the white letters out on my truck, also running Cooper Cobras. It's not a look everyone likes, but I think it looks neat.

White letters out

Yes, your right. This probably wasn't a good thread to start. Everyone will say white letters out and I'll go black wall. Then everyone will shake their head at me.

My fronts are usually so dirty from brake dust it looks like I'm running both!

Eh, it's your call in the end, but nothing wrong with asking for pics and opinions, I love looking at truck pics and we all like post whoring pics of our trucks, so it all works out

The 2nd pic is just creative photoshopping... It's a partial "zeke" filter where it makes it look slightly "drawn." I play with colors and tone in editers a lot. The first pic is my trucks actual color in an unedited pic

I WISH I had them as a matching pair, that would be killer

hevy_chevy67 · 05-30-2017, 04:32 PM

x2 on the white letters out. Just looks good on an old truck imo.

garyd1961 · 05-30-2017, 06:22 PM

New trucks white letters in but on these old trucks white letters out because that's the way we did it way back then.

OregonNed · 05-30-2017, 06:41 PM

I run rallyes and BFG's white side out

70 shorty · 05-30-2017, 07:21 PM

You can probably guess where i stand on this question.

CST10 · 05-30-2017, 08:11 PM

White letters out. I actually have both ways but prefer white out with rally's.

46stude · 05-30-2017, 08:13 PM

I like the look of white letters. I hate maintaining them. Black wall gets my vote.

rsgt · 05-30-2017, 08:31 PM

Here is mine.

landsurvey1 · 05-30-2017, 08:59 PM

Cooper Cobras, black wall out, no lettering, no emblems. (when I get done with it)

el_fantasma · 05-31-2017, 02:41 PM

wow these cooper cobras are popular. Anyway, I paid $30 more for these over the Chinese black wall versions so you know I'm gonna show them. Plus my truck is kinda plain anyway.

tarafied1 · 05-31-2017, 11:33 PM

I'm old. My truck is rough. I like the RWL so i have them out. I also opted for the van 15x7's on the front and the truck 15x8's on the rear. A little old school big n little's...
