OK. Fair enough.
No way. The labels are directly opposite the stems, right where the manufacturer put them.
No no, not the rim logos, the TIRE label. There is a good reason. If you get a flat and can't see an obvious culprit on the outside of the tire, removing the tube and lining it up will tell you where to look at the tire for the problem. If the tire moves you've lost your reference position, unless you know where it was, which should be centered over the valve.
Actually, I tried to get some from each side. I love both sides of my bike and don't care about internet rules. It just happened with the Takara that all the pics with decent lighting were drive side.
They aren't internet rules, they are Velominati rules. Be careful, they are everywhere. Even where you least expect it.
Velominati ? The Rules 
Around here, the only times we usually get wind are, um... always. Crap! I gotta find a big fat guy to draft behind.
