Brandiland 5 Posted January 6, 2016 I'm cutting a wheel decal that will fit inside the rim of a motorcycle.I know I'll need to allow for the curve, when calculating my measurements, but I'm a little unsure where to start.The rim is 17". I made this one that's attached, but it's straight. I'd like my clients to not have to work so hard to get the perfect fit. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Wildgoose 4,200 Posted January 6, 2016 Lay some app tape in there and mark it with a pencil or pen and then pull it back off and stick it to a piece if old backing and scan it as a template. I sometimes just cut a piece of paper or yardstick by hand until it's tight but that works better on glasses. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moody Blue 505 Posted January 6, 2016 I have a soft tape (like a clothes alteration shop uses) to measure round objects. Works every time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
