IF your customer is a 'distributor', or sells the tires, etc.-then chances are 
he has permission to 'advertise' the products. Logos do NOT have to have the 
™,®, or © to be copyrighted-sometimes it just doesn't fit the 'use' or would be 
too small to see.
I can guarantee you though, if the tire company is a 'national' brand-it will 
be copyrighted!
If he is just having some shirts made for his own use, then he cannot just go 
and use copyrighted logos...that's a no-no. But if he is a dealer, racecar 
driver or team, and is sponsored by or sells the products-he would be given ad 
slicks, logo copies, permission to use the logo since they are his sponsor or 
supplier...and you are okay.
Protect yourself...ask to see printed 'permission' or ad slicks, etc. to make 
sure he can use them!
