    Tire White Letters IN or OUT

    Just got the set of Kumho SAT KL61 123/70/16, Kumho*Road Venture SAT KL61
    and I am wondering if I should instal White Letters In or Out.
    I haven't seen too many Discos with the letters Out, so I am leaning toward In.
    The tire as is has already a lot to offer visually

    Thoughts?

    I was told by a tire guy that the white letters should be out because the wall was thicker on the outside to cope with four wheel driving?... (Cooper ATR) and this is also why some people paint the letters...
    Sounds a bit like an urban myth to me, but could it be true?

    Sounds like crap to me, if anything the white material could possibly delaminate for the same reasonings.

    No. Personal choice about white in or out, but I have mine in - I don't need to prove anything to anyone about my choice in vehicles.
