RE: [doc] DeLorean tyre lettering

["Richard" <dickyh11@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I used to do the tyre lettering on another car I had.

I wouldn't bother again. The white(ish) paint only lasts about a week
before you have to start touching it up, and soon starts to look tatty.

You're then forced to keep spending on new touch up pens. Or you can let
it wear off completely which takes ages and makes the tyres look really
nasty.

Give it a miss
