Not a big thing, but would like some suggestions...
I've had my '07 Titan LE for just over a month now. Really like this vehicle, but I wasn't able to get two accessories when I bought it. I wanted the off-road package and the white letter tires. Neither was available from the nearby dealers. The tires are black wall because Nissan was not able to get all their trucks built with the white letter tires because of a strike within the tire company and thus a tire shortage. No big deal. I wanted to take advantage of the February incentives, so I had to buy without the off-road because none was available. I feel my truck looks sort of plain without the tires or 4x4 emblems on the side. New white letter tires are $600 plus and the stickers are $22. I opted for the stickers as I was able to get exact replicas of the OEM ones. Any one have any input as to the pros and cons of the white letter tires and the 4x4 stickers versus the plain look without them? Still considering the tires, but $600 is a lot. Thank you.

I've got a used bucket of white paint. I can definitely give your tires that white lettering and wall look. I've also got a permanent black pen that I can also help you out with the 4x4 emblem. J/K.... just having some fun!

If you just want to make it look the OR look, save your money until you run the stock tires into the ground and buy some new AT's or MT's, with white lettering... The stickers can be found almost anywhere... or spend the big bucks and get'er lifted, new wheels w/ tires, and customize the paintjob w/ perminent 4X4 graphics...

Do yourself a favor. If you want white letter tires, don't buy the OEM tires. Go for either the BFG KOs or Bridgestone REVOs.
It's senseless to me to buy a vehicle without getting exactly what you want on it when buying it new. The few dollars you saved by buying in February are out the window once you purchase the tires and emblems you wanted in the first place. Besides that, the incentives went UP since February, not down! But that's all water under the bridge now. You can easily add the things you want.

I do not really like the white lettering on my tires. It is tough to keep clean and look yellowish from highway travel most of the time. I will not get white lettering on my next set. The 4x4 stickers are all over ebay and I would get a custom set, not the factory ones..
