white letters are sporty. Every single thing blacked is a little borring, white letters give that little contrast that the car needs. White letters definetly on a T. I mean low pros you have to go with blackwall but big thick rubber looks kinda dull all plain. Chrome wheels definetly need RWL, its a classic look.

Still tight rolling your pants and wearing deck shoes with no socks too?

j/k!

White letters!....

I have white lettered tires on my GN. I think it's a matter of personal taste...By the way, white lettered tires were available on the GN's as an option back in '87...
I have a few pictures available if you want to see how they look....Just e-mail me...

I've had both on my GN. One thing that may have changed me from RWL to blackwall is the rims themselves.

I found that the RWL give a sporty look of motion. When the car starts to roll it shows a nice sense of motion. Similar to the way rims with spokes (5 stars) will show motion. I had rims with 5 spokes on the GN before and together they looked good. However when I switched to my 15" GNX style rims the blackwall was the way to go. Something to think about.

I liked both styles so that's a hard call to make. You didn't put something in the poll for people who like both.

I like the suggestion of RWL on one side of the car and blackwall on the other. Wonder how many times kids at NTB have done that by mistake.

Blackwall to the outside for me, and even though it is a matter of personel taste as some of the others have stated, it is interesting to note that the board in general prefers blackwwall out 3 to 1.

black walls on the radials. white letters on the slicks looks good it gives it that muscle car look

Oh its a no brainer black wall, i orginally was going to go RWL but then the more i looked at it it looked i was a lil punk kid (even though i am ) with a monte, black finishes the cars look and get some polished rims and good to go.
