I'm not wanting white walls, but I do want the writing painted white on my new tyres.
I'm wanting the GOODYEAR and the EAGLE F1 part painted white.
Anyone know where or who would do a job like that??
Thanks

I might be getting confused but I think you can get stuff like that at super cheap, tyre paint or something? |

A white paint pen will work.
I once did it on the soarer in chalk reminiscing about the old Gemini/Yoki 352 days.
Looks 'tough', but pretty dated. |

I'd say you'll need an oil based paint pen. |

Not sure about this. Suits a Jeep Wrangler IMO, but that's about all. |

Also looks HOT on US Muscle cars!
Kinda like Red Band tires that came out in the 60' & 70's. |

hi ryan,
i have done this to many tyres and a paint pen works a treat,try and get the paint flowing through the tip quite generously as you dont end up with like brush marks,after a few re applications it does look the goods! |

thanks for that Brendan!
haven't had time to go buy one, hopefully I'll get around to it soon.
Should 1 pen be enough? |

Yeah, plenty. You can test it out on the wife/girlfriend/mums car before you do yours! |
