% RACE RUBBER REMAINING EXPLAINATION:

A three number % (e.g.80-60-80%) indicates percent race rubber remaining (shoulder to center to shoulder)

NOTE: To maximize the wear of an uneven wear tire (e.g. 90-60-40% race rubber remaining ) the 90% edge needs to be mounted toward the "high" wear side of the wheel (typically the outside edge on the front, and variable on the rear depending on your suspension set up)
