Default Hoosiers people, I need help!!

Does anybody knows wich tire will have a flat side? I got hoosiers and Im ready to buy a new set but the ones I have right now have this curve on them


wich I dont like, and I saw another hoosiers that looks flat from the sides, even some slicks have that curve anybody knows?



Like the pic, or like the ones on this video, well they are slicks but there are some slicks with that damn curve

I beleive the shape of the sidewall is created by the width of the wheel you put the tire onto . . . .

For example if you take a 10" wide tire an install it on to a 8" wide wheel the side wall will curve, where as you sitck the 10" tire on to a 10" wide wheel the sidewalls will be straighter . . . .
