I hate to be that guy right out of the gate, but your car is stock so dont do it. Sure if you have a racecar or stanced out show car tire letters might look okay, but on a stock frs

Just my 2 canadian cents and with the exchange rate its basicly worthless so disregard this comment if you wish.

Yep, I agree with ol @go_a_way1 .... (THIS time.......)

IMHO, lettering the tires would, hopefully, NOT be one of your better ideas .......

Is Michelin paying you for the plug? Didn't think so. Think: less is more...

Don't do it. It looks passable on RWB cars and like total shit on everything else.

Sorry but those letters are too damn small. If a person is going to do tire lettering they should do way bigger imo.

On stock wheels/tires I wouldn't do it... If you were lowered, with some nice wheels, and some good tires then I would deem it okay.
