Re: Variation in Tyre Wear.

Attached please find letter and pamphlet from the Dunlop Rubber Co. which I am sending to you in view of their reference to smaller diameter wheels and our intention to use smaller wheels on the 20 HP.

If you consider that R.{Sir Henry Royce} ought to be placed 'au fait' with the contents of the Dunlop Company's pamphlet, doubtless you will communicate with him on the subject.
