Anyone here know if there's any brand that sells UHP or
Competition tires with white lettering? I've always liked the look of them, but it seems like they're only available in muscle car sizes... |

What size of tires are you using and or want?
You should try CokerTires.com and see what they have. They are the white wall specialists and would know. Jim |

245/45R18 and 265/45R18. And I don't want white wall, I'll
see if they have white letter. Thanks for the suggestion about the Goodrich tires, I'll go check them out! |

If you're googling it, remember to look for "RWL" or raised white lettering.
Pretty sure that's what they were called "back in the day". I used to do RWL by hand on my model car tires. Yeah, had much steadier hands back then. :) |

The BFGoodrich Radial T/A available for our cars are S rated tires. They have white lettering on one sideFieros came from the factory with Goodyear Eagle GTs in H rated tires, no white lettering. S rating leaves you one speed rating slower than stock. I believe the Nexens that you can get for the Fiero sizes are H rated but they look a bit like balloons and don't come with white lettering.

Hm... I might have to take Craker's advice here though.
None of those tires are particularly grippy. Might just need to hand paint the tires. |
