Kicking around ideas, I know that a person can take a narrow whitewall and carefully grind away the thin black layer to make it a wide white wall. For a Raised White Letter tire, is the white layer that forms the letters on top of the black, which would let you carefully grind away the letters leaving a nice, slick blackwall with no ID? It would not be good to grind them away finding white below, making a ugly white blob on the sidewall...:LOL:

There is a white layer under the letters. If you don't want white letters, turn the tire around on the rim! QED
Yes, but on a fenderless car the backside is still on display, just a bit less prominent. I was afraid that the white layer was deep, with a thin black overlay around the OWL/RWL. Coker says "Paint 'em black!" :eek:Quote:
