Anyone know of a company that makes RWL tires that'll fit 16s?

P215/55R16

I looked around some and couldn't find any this size.

Redlines would be nice too. Checked Coker, but they don't make them any larger than 15's.

Check Diamondback Classic Radials, they might have what you are looking for. I will let you know if I find anything else.

They used to sell special white paint (applied like chalk) to make raised black letters into white letters.

I have checked around and no one has anything but those lil expensive pens.
i did check Diamondback Classic Radials and here is his note;
"I have seen an ad for some white paint to paint white letters in Hot Rodder Magazine but question how well it will work. We have not found any white paint that will block out the antioxidants in the black rubber in order to remain white."

That's what I'm running into, no tires...paint sucks.

Though the bad attempt at the paint shows me how good it could look.

I'll just keep trying.

What about a slightly different tire size? (right now P216/55R16)

I am lowering and would have to consider that but are there other options for size that would work on my 16s without causing issues after lowering?

This is the look I'm going for.



I love the way it makes the tires stand out. This was done with a tire paint made by Sharpie.

One thing I noticed though after we made the runs at Bristol was that on the passenger side the top half of the paint was gone. Also noticed that that side of the engine compartment was MUCH hotter.

Any ideas what caused this?

I'm really starting to like that victory red color!

Thanks, I like your sig reference. Though I prefer 3:15.

Anyway, are ya gonna be at the event in Peoria in August? It should be a lot of fun!

What happend to your old sig with scripture reffrences? By the way I like the white letter tires.

Wanted a cleaner looking sig so I went with the scrolling userbars.

Thanks for the comment on the tires. It just convinces me even more that I want the RWL tires. The paint is ok from a distance but too much of a PITA to keep doing over and over.

Still trying to figure out why the outside half of the letters on the passenger side came off.
