Black SideWall or
Outline SideWall for US market
VSB refers to the sidewall construction but what i dont know
vertical sidewall belts??? lol
or seeing as goodyear invented vulcanised rubber
maybe vulcanised sidewall belts :)

Sent an Email the other day to Mytyres and got this reply today:
The BSW marking stands for BLACK SIDE WALL description and VSB is for VERTICAL SERRATED BAND
so there you go. Top marks to Thunderace.
WTF is a Vertical serrated band? Guess its a strengthened side wall...
