White tire lettering

If anyone is looking for white tire lettering this works pretty good. Used on my fat tire electric bike. Get the pens in the art dept at Wal-Mart about $2.60. I highlighted the letters. Seems durable.

Re: White tire lettering

I've done that trick before too. It does look great when you first do it but the paint starts to turn to a dark oily color after a while. It must absorb something from the tire itself. I tried it on a new set of tires and it turned yellow within 2-3 weeks. I also tried it on an old dry rotted set and they are still just as white as the day I painted them.

Re: White tire lettering

Where do you buy the lettering that looks like rubber letters glued on to the tires?
