Material

Towel
soap
Sand paper doesn't really matter the grit just not a heavy grit
(optional - brake cleaner or alcohol (acetone works well) cleaner.

Instructions:

-Clean surface with house hold degreaser, or what you maybe. Acetone works well as well.

-Clean the back side of the tire sticker as well. You can use acetone or brake cleaner

-Apply the FleXement adhesive to the back side of the decal. I personally went crazy with it.

-Firm press the decal on the tire. Note: you can use the lines that comes with every tires to help guild where you want to put them.

-Wait 1 hour for cure 24 hours @ room temperature. So, if it is colder wait longer.

-Remove the film and show off your decal.

Order here:https://www.tirestickers.com

IMO they are the most affordable in the market. It works well and looks good.

I like the look of them and even considered it at one point, but their website shows that a set of 4 is around $100. that is definitely way more than I am willing to fork over lol

I picked the permanent letter option which is more expensive than the peel and stick. the peel and stick was like $40 for top and bottom letters. but it seems like the permanent option is the one you want I'm assuming

I was thinking of the permanent letters. $40 for temp seems ok if you have a show car thanks @ryoma

make sure to also drive around the block a few times after letting the glue cure. the sidewall will flex as the car drives obviously, and this can (and almost always will) cause some of the adhesive to come undone. not a big deal, but you'll need to redo some corners and whatnot with extra glue.

if you do the temporary ones, these are way cheaper at like 1/4 of the cost for a full set of tires (4) and easy to stick on smooth. but as tirestickers warn you, these really are temporary. mine lasted about a week before they completely lost color.

i had the permanent set on my previous wheel/tire setup, and once i got past the initial week of having some of the letters lift up, they really were permanent afterwards. too bad i lost a couple letters in the process lol

Thanks for the video! Could you specify which decal height you selected for the tire sticker in the video?
