new tires: white vs. black lettering - which do you prefer?

Sort of like wasting time polishing aluminum rims. I've never seen a pro rig with white lettering. Most tires in the pro sizes do not come with white lettering.

Like I said, I've never seen white on pro rigs. If you want to spend time cleaning white lettering fine. I don't, I rinse my 4x4s off when I get home from the trails. Underneath mostly so I can see if anything is broken or needs repaired.

Don't think anyone said that white lettering or black walls would effect wheeling ability one way or the other.
I just stated that most guys that use their 4x4s for wheeling run black, most mall crawlers run white. No big deal just my opinion, because I'm not concerned about what people thing of the looks of my 4x4, just that it works.
