| Oy1-E-101923 -3- 3. Sizes cont'd.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} Generally the Dunlop sizes appear to be close to the nominal whereas ours appear to be about 5% or 6% larger. I certainly hope Macbeth will have success with the Tire and Rim Association, as, if he doesn't, it looks as though the big tire movement having got to the stage of disappointment, will die out. Oy.
