    Tyre Wall writing.

    Waht do people think of this, m8 at work as done the Toyo Proxes bit on the side of his tyre with a white tyre pen, can`t decide if it looks good or bad!?!?!?!

    I quite like it, but only if it says something wothwhile. If they are Kwik-fit specials, I wouldnt bother.

    I have seen a few VW`s in the custom car scene with the whole sidewall smoothed off. seemingly they just rub them down with wet-n-dry like sanding anything else till all the writing is gone, leaving a totally smooth sidewall. Looks good.

    I've thought about doing that when I've got a set of Eagle F1's (in my dreams lmao )
