I thought that also. I have had various different sets of yokos on different cars over the years and always have the dot line up with the valve. I have tyres fitted at various places and never asked them to do it. I do remeber thinking I was being wound up by a mate when he told me this just after starting work at a tyre place! |

So is the part of the tyre opposite the valve lighter or heavier? That much i dont know. I would presume lighter to counter the missing material. |
