I didn't take the wheels off and only worked in the like 15 minutes increments. Probably an 2 hours. 1.5 if you really crank.

I used the sharpie paint markers.

Haha, thanks dude!

Yeah, the tips of a couple of the letters aren't completely sticking to the tire.

As mentioned in my previous post, I went ahead purchased a stack of these and installed them on my tires. I will post pix over the weekend.

I liked the yellow raised letter better only because it covered more surface area and it's bright and visible when rolling or parked. However, these Michelin stickers are more durable and less maintenance than the colored in yellow letters so the Michelin stickers win in my book. I didn't put two stickers on because I thought it might be too much but now looking at it, I might add another when I replace these with new ones.

I can see the yellow "popping" a bit more, but I really like how those flow with the Volk stickers. I don't think I've seen any other cars with that style of sticker either. Definitely a win in my book

Thanks bro! How are your letters holding? I've driven on these sticker for about 2 weeks and they're holding up well.

I got the concept after watching one of the Le Man race series for Porsche and loved the tires. I wish the tires stickers were the exact duplicate (size and color scheme) as the picture below but it's close enough and I'm happy with it.
