Default White letters in or out??

Just got some new skins and will mount them next week.

Wondering if I should put the lwhite letters in or out?
My current set has them out and I think it might be time for a change.
The tires are about .6" higher each side or about 1.2" over higher, but also about an .8" wider.
Lets hear the opinions.

I think they look good out, but only if you keep them clean.

Clean white letters > blackwalls
blackwalls > nasty white letters

I love this pic of my truck, don't think it would look quite as nice with all black tires, but when the letters get dirty it looks like crap.

I didn't even know you could get those in white letters. I like white letters out as well; but like Thunder said, only if kept clean. White letters kinda keep that old school muscle car look IMO, but thats just me.

I hear you there. I just don't know what to do. I should clean all the blue **** off one of them and see what they really look like.

i guess it really depends on the look of the truck. the stock height/lifted trucks look good with the white out now that i look at the pictures, but could you imagine my truck with white out?
