CONTINUATION SHEET NO. 2 I. T. & R.{Sir Henry Royce} CO. (G.B.) LTD. In the meantime I hope to send you a section of our super private car tyre. What I would like particularly to know is your own or your Company's view point on high pressure, medium pressure and low pressure tyres and on flat base rims as compared to well base rims. Our own opinion is that the medium pressure tyre is the most suitable for private car use. We still incline towards the spring flange flat base rim as being better than the well base bim for big heavy cars, but we have an open mind on the matter. With kind regards, Yours sincerely, | ||
