When i asked the fitter to put the side with the white lettering of my BFG. all terraines on the inside, he told me that the tyre wall was stronger on the side of the raised letters and that they should always be facing out! Is this true? Confused

You are just as likely to receive damage on the inside as you are out the outside.....

I fit the white lettering on the inside to allow the hedgehogs a wee look at what just ran them over. Twisted Evil 2008 RS4 gone, 123d M Sport, and a Puma 90 XS..

No fair........that's cheating...... Mr. Green Thumbs Up

Glad you spotted it though...(assuming it was you of course) Mr. Green


Another reason to have them on the outside is of course to watch the 'washing machine spin cycle' heads of pedestrians as they try to read what's written on them.... Jon - 110 td5 [sold]. Currently Defenderless.
