Looks great! I custom-designed my Diamondback redlines to offset the stripe a little farther from the rim. I'm running on stock 14" Ralley II's.

I DID have a set of Coker redlines before, because I thought they were the only game in town. The cokers had mold marks on the sidewalls, and wore out in a year. I provided the coker "serial number" info to the diamondback guys. Apparently, the cokers are made in a moped tire factory in Mexico! Booooo. The DBC's are actually Michelins with the side markings lathed smooth. The custom stripe placement did not cost anything extra and were about the same price as the Cokers. Bottom line for guys who want redlines- go for the Diamondback Classics!
