I bought a set of tires for my 70 from DB a few years ago. Remember that the wider WW stripe is nearest the rim, not the other way around! I took the liberty of making the wider WW a little wider. I think it shows better. Also, when you're dealing with DB, a word of caution. When we ask for a 3" WW, we are measuring from the lip of the rim with the tire mounted. He starts measuring where the white starts with the tire NOT on the rim. It's good for approx. 3/8" error. I told him, but not sure he listened. LOL.   HTH, Bob
