Tried Tyre Lettering, Your thoughts?

Hi Guys, i gave tyre lettering a go, I like how it came out, What are your thoughts?

Btw, the lettering is almost the same rubber material as the tyre, i had to sand a bit of the tyre walls and clean it well with acetone to get the proper application, It was sent with a tyre "super glue".
Tyre lettering says : NITTO INVO

I like it, do the letters fit exactly over the actually brand name on the tyre? Or do you stick it anywhere?

Nope the lettering on the tyre was smaller, i found a smooth spot and sanded it down a bit otherwise the surface would be too uneven to paste.

I tried it and made my car look cheap so I got rid of it. I think its more suitable for track cars. Hard for me to describe but it doesn't look good on our european/luxury cars unless its like a csl, black series or a gt3 with good stance.

Your car is too stock looking to rock that look, son

Tyres aren't chunky enough either. The ratio is completely off
