Thanks Paul. I could work with it if I know the font type.
Cheers,

I do for the paint on, and AVON too...
The Avon and Good Year are not just fonts these are artworks. Anyhow, I have done the work and these files are ready to cut on my vinyl cutter.

Well, I joined the club.
I have to redo the rear tires, because the stencil set I bought came with two sizes "front" and "rear" (bigger letters). All my tires have the same profile, and the smaller size fits better all around...
Nice project all in all. i like how the lettering adds a more racy look (a la GY "Billboards")
Cheers!

Looks good. I also had two stencil sizes made up, but found the same size was needed front and rear.
Mine are starting to fade already and are looking much better for it.

How has the spray paint held up? Would you stay with that or go with Ranger tire paint or something else?

I don't care how good a tire is. $2350 for avons is a joke. Or for any tire for that matter.

I just bought Avons in December from SascoSports. Cost was $1,738 incl shipping (although I talked them into free shipping since it was Xmas  )
Shipping would have been another $140, although Sasco is located at VIR and only about a 5 hr drive from where I live in MD, so shipping would likely cost more for others.

Hey Pete,
I got quoted between 15 and 18 grand to paint my FIA here in Oz.
That is a joke.
