Cleaning White Letter tires
I have Pirelli Scorpions with white letters. The letters have a yellow tint to them, and they always look dirty, which makes the truck look awefull.
I have tried Soft scrub, Brillo Pads, Westleys tire white, a combination of all three, and the lettering is still yellowish.
Is there anything else that I can try? There must be a way to get these letters pure white, like they are supposed to be.
Please help?

I've used Westleys BW and a nylon bristled tire brush with great results on nasty tires on customers' vehicles. Sometimes, I find it best to spray it on, let sit for about a minute, rinse off, spray on, and scrub, followed by a final rinse with copious amounts of water. Be careful how you spray, though, as it will pit your wheels. Also, keep outside or in a ventilated area, b/c it's a crazy powerful chemical.

This will also strip off any kind of shines or dressings, so re-apply following the cleaning.

Tide
The good ol magic trick is sitting next to your washing machine. Tide with bleach works wonders it will even clean up the oil spots on your driveway.
Just make a paste out of it (you know about a cup full w/ a little water) and use either a green scotch pad or plastic bristle brush. Dont and I repeat Dont use wire brushes on rubber it will damage the tire.
