Re: tyre tags
I compared it to the picture of Malc. - McLaren MP4 / 6 1991 and I would say the sticker is about as wide as the PR number printed on the tire and that is also the case here. But i could also be wrong...
What is very strange is the picture of you with the yellow "Racing", that was actually only used for Nascar as far as I have read it now. However, I also found a picture on which this sticker was used. I just can't find it again. If I find it, I'll put it online!

Re: tyre tags
No it is not Nascar, for sure as you have a center wheel lock nut and not 5 like Nascar, the pic comes from Kyalami 1993
Take a stand!

Re: tyre tags
Yes thats right, but the sticker with the "Racing" is normaly only used for Nascar
By the way, here is another picture of the unknown blue sticker from Südarfika 1992.
Maybe a sticker due to customs / shipping directly for South Africa - one can only guess here

Re: tyre tags
The Racing was also used in 1997, watch the pic i posted.
Yes the other badge has to do with shipping or logistic from Goodyear, not about the description of the tyre itself.

Re: tyre tags
What I could imagine, however, that they switched to this sticker in 1995.
Until 1994 I find the B/W sticker!
1st picture is from San Marino 1995, 2nd France 1996, 3th from Spain 1997

Re: tyre tags
You can never have enough pics. In the end there is still a corner that you can't see well in any of his pictures!
