Thought I would post the below link for anyone considering wanting to white out tyre lettering.

I will probably tackle mine next week.

There are many ways to do lettering, but above link seems to give best results.

Seems a bit over the top to buy a whole MX5 just to practice colouring the tyres on it?

In the past I've used a chalk pen to white the lettering on my tyres, works well, but does wash off eventually
