Replied to your post in chat. You can see the characters if you have japanese text support installed by right clicking, going to "encoding" and selecting shift-jis.

OHHH, its STICH wheels. it could also be Stitch, depending on context, but probably not (as there is a word for stitch, itd only be stitch if it was a proper noun). katakana is used for borrowed words, or words from other languages. its most often english, but also german, french, etc.

No, it's definately not German. I lived in Japan for 18 years. It's a brand/style, i'm not sure exactly off hte top of my head but it's more of an old school rim.
