I apologize for the sound... TH-cam was giving me hard time about the music I chose so I had to replace it with some random copyright-free music. Now the most part of the video is silent :\
im absolutely impressed! definitely gonna try it out
Great stuff man! The attention to detail is awesome!
CRAZY ...GOOD JOB!
dude !!!! amazing... well done!!
Hi there great video.. very help full. Just wondering were did you get the stencil from if you can give the link please and thank you
I know this video is a few years old but question for you... why not use Rubber Cement/Glue vs Super Glue???
Can't seem to find that white rubber... did you special order from somewhere ? Thanks for the info and great looking job. The last tire letters I ordered from China didnn't last. They cracked in a few weeks. I'm thinking that using the right material might make them last a wee bit longer. Gotta love that race car look.
This is amazing thank you
Dude thanks soooo much!!
wow so brilliant , what size the rubber ? did you use thanks for answering my question keep it up bro
How do you make the template pleeease help :(
What is the program for the print out on the Adobe flash? To get the print out?
bloody awesome
Is there a yellow runner sheet i can buy? I only see white and black
Darn... thanks the rubber gasket is sold out...will a silicone rubber sheet work?
Krazy glue won't work for long it drys hard and will Crack off ?
nice...where can i buy that rubber sheet?
Adhesive damages the tire?
do you think it would work with EVA foam sheets??? Eva foam comes in a ton of different colors and can be laser cut...
good ideas, I'm gonna try it see if it hold out.
Where do I purchase the rubber to cut the letters out of
Where do you get the rubber sheet from? And do you have yellow rubber sheet?
where can i get the material used for cutting the letters in colours?
Did the sharpie hold up on the sides? I just ordered 12x12 sheets on amazon!! Need to work on the template
yes! it gets deep in the rubber and you can't take it off even with rubbing alcohol
Should wear nitrile gloves to prevent natural oil on your fingers from contaminating the rubber before you glue it, they wont last long
bhaiya jee rubber kaha se purchase kiya tha
what material did you stick with
Hi bro what is the name or brand of the rubber sheet? Where to buy it?
That's awesome, but what's the durability, I mean you no once super glue gets wett for so long it dries up,so I'm sure the letters will fall off,especially with a pressure washer
Hi, may i know what size did you use on Photoshop? Using pixels or mm please help
I think he used a ratio then printed according to sticker paper size. If you noticed they turned out bigger than expected.
Nice job
Where did you buy the plastic rubber?
great stuff bro can u share link for tool kit u r using ?
Where you buy your tools at ?
How did u design the letters to bend perfectly around tire on illustrator
trial and error honestly
Where did you find the rubber
Where did you get the rubber sheet
Dope

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
How did you get the right angel for your tires?? And what size tires are you riding??

Thank you!
What Knife was that you was useing
What is the paper to use.??
Thank you
hermano gracias por compartir lo que sabes , ya hice los míos para el honda y me gustó mucho como quedaron. cuanto tiempo duran?
You are absolutely welcome! I enjoy making videos and comments like that motivate me even more. They can last maybe 6 months if maintained properly and if you use rubber glue instead of super glue. And check them once in a while and add glue if necessary if it comes off a little
+tengotengo's hermano gracias por responder, por ahora hice unas letras pequeñas para el civic pero después voy a hacer unas mas grandes, como las de tú BMW. Saludos desde la Heroica Ciudad Juárez
Oye, que material compraste y dónde Leo Aguirre???
+Paris Ibarra anduve buscando un material más resistente y no encontré y pues compré foami y lo pegué con super glue que es como la kola loka pero mas barato, ya tienen casi dos meses y aún están como nuevos
Y cómo lavas el foami, se mantiene blanco?
Hei man! Nice video! What type of font did you used on illustrator? I see there is many people asking the same question,hope you can answer to complete our project just like you did it.
Greetings!!
The font that was used was Frutiger LT Com 95 UltraBlack
Wish i wouldve seen this before spending $120 and what software did you use? Can you link it please thanks for the video
Adobe illustrator
That's awesome! How many sheets should I buy? $15 will include 3 sheets but not sure how many letters will come out of them if I cut the letters at 1 inch.
Where do you get the sheets
That a good idea
What do i touch in the illustrator to curve the letters ? And what is the font because it is not coming out for me. I looked up the one in your description but it docent come up. please help :(
You need to download the font from the internet. Just type it's name in Google
th-cam.com/video/DPOiFgCDR6k/w-d-xo.html here's a great tutorial on how to type text on a curve
Hi what kind of rubber and where did u buy it please let me know thanks
go on ebay and type "white rubber sheets gasket" and you should see it
also there was a suggestion to try foam sheets as well
Thanks buddy I’ve been looking this kind of rubber for a long time I know it’s not the same as what they use at tire graphics or at tire stickers they are way to expensive just to buy this tire letter but the one u make very impressive thanks to your video good job my friend happy new year
When you bought the rubber sheets, was the color a true white or an off white that is almost like a light tan color?
yes, it wasn't quite white
I think it was off white. His didn’t look completely white. How did your project go? Did you go through with it? If you did, what glue did you use? I’m thinking of using contact cement
how many sheets are needed to do all 4 tires?
Great question. You could calculate that using your design in Adobe Illustrator. You could also use software called Texture Packer to arrange your letters as efficiently as possible on each sheet to reduce waste. It all depends on what you're trying to write.
tengotengo's alright sweet, did you need more then 3 sheets tho ?
I bought a pack of 3 sheets and I only did it for rear tires, 2 words each, 4 total and I think I used about 2 sheets. But I didn't use them very efficiently.
tengotengo's sweet thank you
Hello nice work compliments, can i know how is the rubber sheet you used and where can i find it online? What name? thank you!!

tengotengo's m.ebay.com/itm/222515608594?_mwBanner=1 I bought in Italy what you see in my link, but I do not understand if it is identical to yours or if it is a different material.
it must be rubber. Because it should be flexible and durable, because it will shrink with the tire as it spins
tengotengo's Try to see what happens and let you know 👍🏻 thank you for your availability
Gosh thanx for the tip... Will try looking for a similar rubber
que material usaste para las letras, y como metiste las medidas en autocad?
Se utiliza nitrilo sanitario de 1.5mm
The rubber you're using for this, I keep finding white 'nitrile' rubber but it always seem more off-white than just pure white. How white is it actually?
yeah, it's not perfectly white, it's yellow-ish, but on black tires it'll look white alright
Where did you find rubber sheet?
Can i use regular decal vinyl to make this? And just use strong glue ? “Idk whats the name of glue they use for this decals”
No, I tried, comes off easily since it needs to flex with the tire and vinyl is not as flexible, especially when cold.
@@tengotengos9000 tried what doesnt it stay on
what software ?
Hey how big are your letters
Can I get a cricket machine and make the stickers?
Hi there can I know what software are you using to design the lettering
Adobe Illustrator
Probably not getting an answer but what was the thickness of the rubber sheet?
Jesse Aguilar why not? About 2-3mm
Can you teach how to measure the size and convert into AI
what material that you used? any specific name? link to puchase?
updated in the description
what is the font of the text called
Frutiger LT Com 95 UltraBlack
what is the name of the font?
To print the design are you using Photoshop ??
pavel1809 you can Thats what i did
What software where did you use to making the template
adobe illustrator
Rubber sheet used to cut the letters What is it called? Where can I find it?
ebay
How do you get the measurements for the tire and how do I know how do plug them please help?
plug them?
about the measurements, try putting a masking tape on the tire, then take it off, put of a flat surface and you'll have your curve. Now measure the radius and use that value in the software when you're making the curve
did you just take a picture of the masking tape and just measure height and length then make that in the file? I made templates for my tail lights by using paper and then sliding a pencil around the edge.
Hayes5ohh you could do that too, yeah
Or you can put a masking tape where the decals should be all around the tire, then take it off, cut so it lays flat and measure the diameter
Hey what is the name of that program?...If any one can please reply, really appreciate it...
Adobe Illustrator
How can I got it
I am not really good with computer and none of my friend ☹️☹️ can you please make the design for my tire I already bought rubber just cant get the print on paper please help mee
LMAO
Whats he using
Do you think flex tape will work?? It’s rubberized tape? 🤷🏻♂️
most likely no
How did you make the round template over the cyrcle in photoshop
write the text on a curve (don't remember how it's called) and then adjust the curvature manually to match the circle.
Make a circle using the shape tool, hold "shift" to make it a perfect circle.
Then click on the text tool and click on the edge of the circle you created.
World Peace I think that’s illustrator
Way I did it on photoshop was get the measurement of the tyre the same way he did my grabbing the
circle tool - right click cause it will be rectangle tool as default.
Click An drag it out but hold shift as said above^ An you will see it’s size.
Then grab the T (type tool) click anywhere on the page don’t make a text box! An reduce the PT (size) to like 14-20 to make adjustments easy at first.
When you have your word types hover he curser Over the end of the word an highlight it.
Go to the top banner DON’T PRESS TILL I SAY THIS IS A GUIDE! An you will see the three icons saying
“left align text” and. “centre align” ect ect.
next will be the colour swatch (same as the circles colour of not sure) press the next icon to the right that has a T with a curve underneath (or sad face mouth 😂)
Click that, it will have a pop up saying
Style: none (default)
Click on none An then select arc.
From here you will notice the word imminently curve, from here you have three adjustments to muck around with to perfect the curve,
+ITSEVILGENIUS how do you measure the tires like he did?
It looks amazing, but manually cut out a total of 64 letters and all applying them one by one is a bit too rich for me. I'd happily slap some money on the counter for this
Anyone have a link to find the rubber as I can not seem to find any at this moment. Thanks for the video mate.

many thanks men✌✌
best regards😊
If you're going to try making your custom decals, use rubber glue instead.
great video, probably going to save us $100 for this DIY :), mind if I ask how's the stickers holding up and how do you keep them clean?
They hold up pretty well, rubber gets a little chapped over time, and you should also use a rubber glue instead of super glue.
Cleaning with a rubbing alcohol is super cheap and easy solution.
I haven't figured out how to prevent them from chapping. Probably gonna try soaking it with some oil or gasoline to make them softer and prevent from drying
tengotengo's 1st off great video, 2nd where can i buy the rubber at?
tengotengo's 5
tengotengo's I used super glue but it says it bonds to rubber do u think I’m fine?
@@tengotengos9000 the super glue will dry them out too, plus super glue drys hard with no flex. good video though
Most useful video i found for tyre leterring 🙂🙂🤌🏻🤌🏻 thank you so so so much ❤️❤️
I've done this with actual rubber & the strongest glue out there but, the lettering fell off after 2 weeks. Letters were cutting off or flying off from the tire flexing on small potholes & harsh road conditions. It's great for a day or two but not permanent.
Jovanny Sanchez what glue did you use? I’m going to use contact cement. Did the glue you use leave a nasty residue on your tire?
Jeffrey Mac yes it did. I recently bought a legit tire lettering pair & it did the same thing. Either I suck at installing them or my fenders are destroying them.
You can buy fleximent glue separate on the web. Thats the glue that all the expensive kits come with.
wouldn't regular patch tire cement work? the key is gluing to clean rubber. tire guys buff the rubber clean for patch to stick
WHERE DO YOU BUY A WHITE RUBBER SHEET?!?!?!
yes, don't forget about the banana. Most import tool of this mod. LOL
Hey, how have these held up with driving?
Held great!
What font was used?
Frutiger LT Com 95 UltraBlack
Alguém sabe me dizer que cola é esta???
Cualquier pegante instantáneo... Busca 3M, es la mejor 👍
A bit thick for my taste.. but you’ve inspired me and I made my own!
@Shawnda Chabot bought some rubber sheets from amazon and put a layer of reflective colored vinyl on them.. used my vinyl cutter to cut out the letters
@@alextravis8429 actually trying to do this, i have a vinyl cutter, but how did you get the measurements and curve?
@@AdamPlays414 just measure your tire or you can make a template out of masking tape and trial and error cut a curve. what are you trying to make exactly? I might be able to send you a template.
@@alextravis8429 just michelin logo for the tires

Use rubber cement
Awesome but I feel the rubber sheet is kinda thick
it's as thick as the ones you can buy for $100-$200. It's called "raised" tire decals
The software was it Adobe Illustrator | Vector graphic design software
I you teach me i am going to watch your videos and make mind am not buying any thanks to you mon bless up your self
