OK, so all my life I've always had rims which, if they had some sort of labelling, it was directly opposite the valve stem. So positioning the tyre label was easy - over the valve stem, opposite the rim label.
But now I'm putting a tyre on a new (old) rim I've got and while there is a small label on the rim directly opposite the valve stem, the main label is 4-6 spokes (36 hole rim) around from the valve!
I'm pulling my hair out... where the feck do I put the tyre label on this rim?! opposite the valve stem? opposite the main label? equidistant from the valve and rim label?
argh!
