One of the biggest risks of damage to your Tire Stickers is ordering
too large for the tire sidewall surface. The tire has a designated
tread bead and inner bead that defines the tire sidewall surface, this
is the 'safe area' for application of tire letter kits.
Sportbike and off-road motorcycle tires have a standard size but must be measured. The Calculator is not intended for use on motorcycle tires or unusual tire sizes!!
There are two methods of determining the proper fitment for your tire:
- Measure the sidewall surface with a ruler - Be sure to measure the
sidewall, NOT the entire surface from tread to wheel! If you have any
doubt, send us a photo!
- Generic Tire Sizing guidelines - Use the generic tire sizing chart
below to guide your decision or our Decal Height Calculator located on
each order page. Identify the aspect ratio or series (generally the
middle number of the tire specification) and match to the chart. Note: some tires may have a unique aspect ratio outside of these guidelines, when in doubt email us!
Tire Series Specification MAX Recommended Letter Height
20 0.5"
25 0.75"
30 1.0"
35 1.25"
40 1.25"
45 1.5"
50 1.75"
55 2.0"
Example:
Tire Size: 245/45/R17 MAX Recommended Height: 1.5"
When in doubt, it is safest to size the same height as the tire
manufacturer's brand letters. Anything larger may risk damage in
cornering or standard driving conditions.
