Got some nice Wolbers off Church the other day for my Vitus but thinking about some Michelin hi - lites too. Anyone know what i can expect to pay for a set of 1.5's?

Just to check before i buy a set, is this label right on em? seen some with bx written on them ontweb

NORTY40 · « **Reply #14 on:** November 06, 2014, 02:08 PM »

The 2 sets i have both have this label on them ....

oldschoolace · « **Reply #15 on:** November 06, 2014, 02:13 PM »

Yeah that label seems to be prevelant on google searches. They are described as hi-lites and certainly look the same both tread and sidewall $:-\$

Will probably get em anyway, i guessed the set i found may be an earlier run

This is why a comprehensive reference section would be good
