The large letters on the tires are 2-and-an-eighth inches tall.

I have original Halibrands with the center painted black, also a good look. Frankly, I wouldn't want to face having to polish the centers, also. I'm thinking that HRE is the only source for billboards.
For some reason, 15 inch wheels look perfect on a Cobra.
