Painted tyres

[Harry_manback]

Always fancied it so i thort id give it a go.
dunno how long they'll last, but the tyres all ready for changing anyway.

 

[ChorleyFM]

Schweet, what did you use, im tempted to do my goodyear?

 

[Harry_manback]

i started with a pen i found in my old mans scooter bits. called tyre art but that was a bit crap and as i had started i went to motosave and get another one, which was dead easy to use but u need to get plenty on as its goes kinda yellowish if u just but 1 coat on.

 

[KyleB]

looks good

 

[RSi Dave]

might do my champorio's

 

[Maz]

Excuse me for being thick but have you just painted the white bit ?? not the black .. lol ???

 

[Adam]

looks ok

 

[Englebert]

Not bad! Let us know how long it lasts.

 

[Harry_manback]

its not that thick actually maz, i started with a tin or delux once over, (gloss black) gives it a nice dark colour to start with, then i added the white.


only joking.
i just used AG tyre dressing b4 i started so i could wipe off any excess white paint!
silly billy!

 

[ollie]

Would be interesting to see how long it lasts . .don't the cup racers have the white on their tyres ?? do the tyres come out of the factory like that or have they done the same as you ?? :S

 

[Harry_manback]

they have it printed on i rekon, they dont have the same writing on there already its just a blank space and they print the word on, all im doing is abit of colouring in!

 

[Ash87]

Looks good mate, stayed between the lines well!

 

[dannyboy172]

will it come off tho next time you dress the tryes?

 

[Mattsclio!]

Ahhhhhhh ok cheers for that

 

[bigsymo]

Looks ace mate.!!
I did the same to my 'Firestones' a few years ago on my MkII black 3.0 Ford Capri.
Might be tempted to do the same when i get some new boots....

 

[Limca]

thats excellent harry, do u reckon tipex would work. haha, as i have loads of that. lol

 

[Nafoff]

looks cool...may have to do the same once i have some new rubber..would work well with the dark wheels

 

[Clio R]

looks gd.i wonder wat it looks like again when u use tyer dressing next time?

 

[Jay]

looks cool.

 

[Gaz]

Looks smart.

 

[al]

Looks cool dave!!

Might have to try it on my pirellis!!

 

[Serg]

looks very good m8 espec on a black car. plus as long as you have 4 matching tyres its a good idea lol.

 

[pecan]

Use a Tipex pen.

 

[Matteh]

does it come off if you wash your car (does the shampoo take it off)?

what about if you apply wheel blackener, do u have to avoid that area, or does it just wash off the pen?

looks good

 

[Harry_manback]

not tried to wash it yet, tbh it took about 15 mins per wheel max, so even if it does wash off its not a big deal!!!!!!!


thanks 4 the comments.

 

[lewisniven]

sweet beans, i wanna do that now, lol.

 

[Alan]

Can you get this stuff in halfords?

 

[Iain C]

Sweet Jesus
thats looks gash! Why would you do that?
The only car allowed to have painted letters is the A team van!

 

[Waitey]

You can use tipex yes! White poster paint worked the best when i did it. You have to re apply it quite a lot. Especially if your tyres get a lot of hammer like mine.

Pic on my old valver.

Backing up a statement with something that involves the A-Team ALWAYS works!! lol

 

[Harry_manback]

[Iain C]
