The cheapest way cheaper then this is use iron on letters from Walmart, I bout 4 packs of iron on letters and a bottle of extra strength super glu I take a filer and filed down smooth spots on my tires and rubbed gasoline on the filed spots then put super glu on the back of the letters and put them in place I have no problem with them at all and this was less then 10$

Looks amazing man, I always put stickers on my vehicle tires, might start making my own now, the last set I purchased off of ebay and theyre going on 4 years now.
I did my tires yesterday and I wanted to share some tips with you guys. 1. Use Tire/Rim Cleaner + Goo Gone + Pressure Washer and Sponge to Prep the tire. Don't let the Goo Gone sit too long it will crack the rubber on the sidewall. Follow up with 1000-2000 grit sandpaper to lightly scrub the parts you're painting. It'll help the paint stick. 2. PAINT THICK and EVEN COATS! Even if it takes 4-5 Coats make sure the paint is bright and thick. Approx 1.5 hours labor per tire. If the oil from the tire starts to mix with the paint marker then take a 5-10 minute break and come back. If you're right handed, paint left to right and vise versa. It will minimalize smudging. WEAR PLASTIC GLOVES. 3. USE SNEAKER WATER PROOFER SPRAY to protect the surface. Don't use clear coat. Clear coat will yellow and also has chemicals that loosen/dissolve the paint. Any brand sneaker water proofer should work. USE several coats, the tire will absorb the first few. 4. Cover the letters with masking tape if you go threw the car wash. A high pressure spray might take off the paint. Might. If you hand wash your car you will be fine. Also. Use the Miluwakee brand paint markers. Some people swear by sharpie markers but they're garbage and can't combat the tire oil. (Oil based) The paint with the Miluwakees is thick and bright + they dry in "10 sec" and they are very easy to use.
👍By far one of the best videos on this subject that’s out there!👍I’ve been researching DIY ways to do this (on a _cheap_ budget!) & going to give you’re method a whirl within the next few days here. Questions tho... *It’s been almost a year since this install... how have they held up?? Any additional tips that have come up after this video?* Thanks a lot man! I’m excited to give this method a try! You got a “like” & a new sub after this video... keep ‘em comin’!
Ive since then sold wheels flipped tires put the tires on the 240 and the sliding has messed them up. But if you take care of them no tire butter they hold up awhile if not replace them its just a few dollars
agreed. All the other videos I seen had a 3-5 minute intro or would talk about everything but what was in the title. This was the first one I watched the whole way through without getting annoyed.
military trick- engrave your last initial and 4 digits inside the rims so you wont have to prove it so hard,,,youre smart mane Ive been there had more than one car stolen
So far so good if you watch my most recent videos still tire letters new brand but track style tires holds up just fine. Even better with no rubbing issues
Good video bro! Like this idea. After this is done do u think a foam tire shine would keep em clean and do u think it would affect the longevity of the letters?

SobSteez I’m doing a weathering test on them now, so far they’ve lasted a month with now wear at all. But spots that I mess up with on glue are failing (sharp edges)
I made sureI was heavy on the glue I didnt mess with the too much no tire shine or anthing had well over 20k on them used the tires for my 240 and the tire wall stretch cracked them

Good shit dude I like it. Last attempt I tried was straight up vinyl with adhesive and the first rotation they came off lol.
Hell yeah broo, fire asf

SobSteez forsure, thanks man!
Looks like your in the phenoix area great video bro
What’s the name of the vinyl u used
How long did they last?
I'm putting "eat ass" on my tires... lol.
That looks great bro!!
good job kid, easy and nice
looks beautiful
It was!
AWESOME WHIP:)
Looks legit !👌🏼
Thanks for the info G
What's the name of the vinyl that you got from Joann's fabrics
military trick- engrave your last initial and 4 digits inside the rims so you wont have to prove it so hard,,,youre smart mane Ive been there had more than one car stolen
Will it hold up to power washing? U no super glue dries up with to much water or even tire bleach on white lettering?
So far so good if you watch my most recent videos still tire letters new brand but track style tires holds up just fine. Even better with no rubbing issues
What’s the name of the fabric that you used ?
Sick ass tire letters and rapid taillight flashing. #mbn
Actually turned out pretty damn good dude 👌
Good video bro! Like this idea. After this is done do u think a foam tire shine would keep em clean and do u think it would affect the longevity of the letters?
i need to try this
I know you can't put tire shine on those tires anymore
Not on the letters. No. I would not recommend.
Good job man !
A link of where to buy the vinyl would be really helpful
Joanne fabrics if you played attention, and autozone for the glue
Amazon
I think tire cement that comes with tire patch kits would work Better than super glue for this
Dude get a Cricut cutting machine. You can make those in about five minutes
Thats what I used tho. I believe I stated that aswell.
Thats what I used to make the stencil its not cutting though thick leather tho
Nice job!
Good video bro. I’m going to try this next weekend. Was the yard enough for all for tires
Hey bro. we’re exactly did you buy the vinyl at.
Do you know the name of the vinyl on joahns so i can buy
Yo thanks for the tip homie
Any questions feel free to ask
What kind of vinyl did you use?
Ayeo bro what is the name of the vinyl you used lmk asap thx mane🙏🙏
Good stuff 👌
🔥 dope vid how did it hold up when washing the car?
Great they are coming off on the 240 because of too much tire flex when I went drifting
What side of the vinyl did you use the fabric side or the rubbery side to stick the letters on the tire ?
Fabric side down vinyl up so you can clean it easy
Niceeee
I tried this but the ended up looking tacky I wrote NO OUTLET and the o and u made them look tacky any tips?
Use a word without o or u
Lmao his comment. What about them looked tacky?
@@sobsteez the O and U i used i did bad at cutting them and made the entire thing look tacky but the rest look good.
Nice vid bro
Foo am a put what ever the duck I want eshe. I’ll put Louis Vuitton
Please do!
🙏🏾
What about up keep ? Cleaning ?
I recently put a set on my daily tires I dont put tire shine but I do wash the wheels and tires no issues.
Hey bro I’m doing tire letters to my caddy wanted to know if you wanted to calab
Sounds good
YoMamma instead of Yokohama
lmfao... why would you use pleather? get a thin rubber mat and cut it up, at least its rubber, and try using rubber cement.
Quanto sono durate ?
What font did u use? Material? What side of the vinyl did u stick to the wheel?
Front is what ever you want. Material like I said its a vinyl on one side cloth on the flip amd you glue the cloth side to the wheel vinyl side out
Thank you for the reply back and the information. Will definitely try this out.
Absolutely thats what im here for!
Kanjo!!!
I bought the vinyl from Amazon. Its made by vivid. $10 for a roll
Hows it look?
@@sobsteez cloth material on the back and textured on the front. Rubber cal nitrile is the more heavy duty option. Here's the vinyl th-cam.com/video/QuKFSbFefRg/w-d-xo.html
@@dreezyfranklin Just about looks the same well either way good shit!
Dope ass look
Brauh get a cricut to get crispy ass letters eshe
🤣 Funny thing is thats what I used.
@@sobsteez oh really? On the vid? I thought you hand cut them. Nice ride by the way. Love how it looks like white walls wen your rolling
I cut a stencil out with a plotter and can't cut the leather because of the thickness.
Keepgunnin🔫🔫🔫
Were doy you buy the vinyl?
That glue is worse than paint
Is it? Dang I never would have imagined.
I miss the ek hatch :(
I just looked at a photo yo I drove that thing hammered
Good looking out on the vid. #MAAD_HEMI on IG
Appreciate it man!!!
How long did it last and are they still there?
Wheels are long gone
SobSteez I’m doing a weathering test on them now, so far they’ve lasted a month with now wear at all. But spots that I mess up with on glue are failing (sharp edges)
SobSteez if they last more than 6 months I’ll release a video on them.
I made sureI was heavy on the glue I didnt mess with the too much no tire shine or anthing had well over 20k on them used the tires for my 240 and the tire wall stretch cracked them
