I'm putting some new 31/10.50R15LT Goodyear Wranglers Tires on my 1975 Dodge Power Wagon shortbox. Trying to decide whether to put the raised white letters out or the blackwalls out. It has smaller Goodyears on it now with the white letters out and it looks pretty good but I like the blackwall look too. What do you think???

either would look good on that beauty!

If you do go blackwall, please paint over the white letters.

For a more period correct look, white letters out. Otherwise, whichever the owner prefers. As mentioned above, that truck would look great either way.

IMO, RWL out ruins the look of ANY vehicle. If you want white showing, why go half-way?

Fixed it for you!

Out

I've done them both ways. In my opinion, I think the white letters out gives the truck a more classic look, but they look out of place on the newer stuff.
On old truck blackwalls say work truck, or too cheap to buy the rwl tires. Gene

I say 'out' because they're Goodyears.If they were funkashemos, I'd say 'in'......

Import branded tires white letters out don't look right to me on vintage steel.

Definitely out

I agree, letters out.

Good point!

Another good point!

My '75 PW (that I bought new) had the 31-10.50 package from the factory and the tires were blackwall. Not sure when white letters were offered. My next 2 new ones ('78 that was stolen & '79 Adventurer that I replaced it with) both had 235s? in blackwall and I never considered them to look like a work truck. Of course, on both trucks, as soon as I saved the money they both got 10" wheels & 33" white letter tires.

Out for sure!

Raised white letters all day long with the big sidewalls, if your going with the more modern look of tall wagon wheels with rubber band tires then black wall only.

I went with white letters out! Thanks for all of the responses!

Those wheels and tires look good!
