your right! The word AVON is like 2" in hieght and 4" long, then you have the small writing of the tire info.

I'm thinking of putting these on my SG. My rear tire is going to need to be replaced shortly. I like the look of the WWW on my SG I know opinions differ, but only mine counts regaring my bike.

What is the general thought of mixing tires? My front is still in pretty good shape for at least another riding season and I really don't want to stick with the Dunlop D402s.

BDJHOG: I actually like the look of the WWW tire on your SG. Your pin striping pulls it all together. Gotta love the SG!
