White out. Looks good on 4x4 trucks and Jeeps.

275/70/18 currently have 265/75/17 winter treads on it. I bought it used and it came from northern Quebec.

I really like the look of the white out with the chrome wheels. Getting them mounted tomorrow.

I prefer black out. White out is more maintenance as well.

White out. I never could figure out why folks would buy rwl tires & then turn them in. Unless you get a killer deal.

It's totally personal preference. I've always preferred white out if the size offers it (not all KO2 sizes do). One thing to keep in mind, if you're not too into finer detailing then I'd say go white in - you do have to keep the letters looking white or they look pretty crappy IMO.

White in still shows and looks lousy. White out.

Thats true. Im pretty sure the 285 65 20s only come in all black which is what I have.

I had the whites out on my 05 and the lettering did require regular cleaning to keep them looking decent.

Not digging the black out. If it were all black that would be another story.

Plus KO2S have one of the nicest looking white letters.
