| X+462 Expl. Dept. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}6/MJ. 15th. May 1933. Lord Rothes, 39, Elm Park Gardens, LONDON.S.W.10. Dear Lord Rothes, Replying to your letter of May 11th. We are very pleased with the silence of the tyres which you left with us and we should like another set of them if possible to replace those of the standard pattern. I do not think at the moment we have anything we could usefully discuss with Mr. Worth, but if any points arise we will certainly let you know. We should like you to tell us what degree of out of balance you work to on your standard production tyres of the Bentley size. Yours faithfully, For Rolls-Royce Ltd. | ||
