Ritchie I have had hit and miss results with the Uline ones.
The Yellow ones I got from them stick really good.
The Green ones Okay
The Orange ones forget about it, they just dont have much stickyness to them.

Make sure after you apply your tire dope and wipe it off to take a paper towel or rag and spray some motor spray on it, then wipe around the edge of the rim where the dot sticks to. then apply the dot, make you press it down real good. As long as you dont take too many hits off the wall you should be okay.

When you order from these merchants you must also specify what adhesive you want, Removeable, semi permanent or permanent. Least stick to most stick.

I work in the printing industry and deal with labels stocks occasionaly. Lancer label offers different adhesives and several different colors also. When I looked on Uline's web sight it sounds like they supply permanent adhesive unless you specify otherwise. Might not be a bad idea to check when you order though. Lancer even has a prism finish on some labels. That might be cool, if you don't get hypnotised watching your car go round and round. You can even get almost anything you want printed on them, sponsor name etc. for those of you who have too many sponsors to fit the available space on your cars. L.O.L.

I use the monocote that you use to cover the wings on rc airplanes. The only downside is you need to take a heat gun to the track with you. Once you heat these babies up they stretch as tight as a drum head. I usually get the strips that places like hobby town sells. I then put this in my vinyl cutter and cut out circles. I have also used a circle templet and an exacto knife. The glue is also heat ativated so they seem to stick alot better. Anyway thats my $.02 cents!
