In connection with the special 17" wheels we regret having to advise your office last night that slight difficulty has been experienced in providing accommodation for balance units, as a result of which our Works cannot effect despatch until first thing tomorrow morning when the wheels will leave by road transport. We have also given instructions for 12 - 7.00-18 Fort "90" pattern tyres to be despatched to you immediately and these will be allocated to the official order which we note your Order Dept. is arranging to place.
