Raised White Letter Tires
My boyfriend Henry has a really clean 1974 Olds Cutlass Supreme 2dr that has raised white letter tires. I was looking at his car parked next to mine today and was thinking how cool that might look. I really don't want to change my rim size until they come out with more wheels for the HHR. Here's the tire I'm thinking about putting on. What do you guys think and will this small difference in tire size create any warranty problems. Also, here's the website where I saw them...they are about $100 each.

You could do that to your current tires with a tire paint pen.

Not trying to talk you out of new rubber of course but if you just want the look of white letters painting them would be cheaper.

Yeah, so what?
All they do is tell you who sells their products, not who stocks Hot Tires. I called three of the chains that they listed that had local stores and the product is so new that they didn't have it listed in their computers much less stocked in the store.
I was able to find an on-line store that did, that's what the link I posted was for.
