    Looking at the A3 XLT in 275/70R18; the Cooper site lists them with Raised White Letters. Does anyone know if they’re reversible? I know most tires have a black-out option but the sidewalls on these almost look like they’re not reversible from the few pics I’ve seen. I’ve ran white letters out before but I don’t think it’ll look good on inferno.

    Yes, very common to do this
    ...this coming from an Ex Professional Tire builder for Cooper. No telling how many black donuts rolling in this Great Nation that has my name in them.

    I would like to know this as well. I asked @CaptTyler who just got these and I believe he said they sell two different versions, one with white letters and one without. Doesn’t make a lot of sense though, why not just make them reversible like others in their lineup?

    Some tread designs aren't reversible. My STT Pros are. I run with black out. Some Coopers are offered in black or white depending on tread design.

    My assumption is that they are reversible since they’re only available in one style (RWL) in that size. Surely they would offer both if not. I don’t think running white letters out is as popular as blackwall. I might email Cooper to be sure.

    I just looked close at the LXT tread. It is reversible.
