Default Pirelli P0 White Lettered Tires

Wanted to break up all that black on the rim and tires so added an accent to the tires. Didn't do all the letters since I thought it would be too much. What do you guys think?

They offer at least 4 colors, and you actually buy directly from Pirelli for about $4k a set, which will last the life of the tire. They also make full tires kits with more lettering and arcs to complete the look. Personally, I think they look better on race car tires but I am in a firm believer in doing what makes you happy!

I'm not feeling it. Nice car otherwise.

Raised white letters were a really big deal decades ago, after whitewalls started to disappear, then everything went to black.

Maybe you can bring it all back, whitewalls on a Porsche!

Unless Pirelli is giving you them for free, no.

I don't like it as-is. If you're going to do it, you need to go all in with the look. Only having one sticker on there makes it look odd.

I think it will like you've got something stuck on the tire when it's rolling?

It’s like having a piece of monogrammed luggage from Louis Vuitton, you’re boldly advertising something that’s not all that good... 🤡

Subtle and looks good against the white body car. Just enough break-up imo.
