Painting your tire letters white is an easy, if time consuming, way to get that nice old school look on your tires that you just can’t get anymore from buying them off the shelf. All it takes is a few simple supplies and some time (and patience).
By using an oil based Sharpie paint pen, you can easily color in the letters on your tires. There are some things to take note of though. First, this won’t last forever. Second, it’s time consuming. Third, the look isn’t for everyone. I really like how mine came out though.
I even decided to use some actual titanium white oil paint to do the final coat on the tires, just to give them that little bit extra brightness and to attempt to get them to last longer. I’m not sure I succeeded in the latter though, considering some of the last coat of paint flaked off pretty much as soon as I drove it out of the garage.
