| FOR FILES. X1336 10.7.35. India Aero Cushion Tyres 6.00 x 16. The above tyres were tested on 3-B-IV car for riding qualities and steering effects. We found that to obtain as good a ride as the Dunlop standard tyres, pressures 35 lbs. front and 30 lbs. rear, we had to reduce the pressures on the India tyres to 27 lbs. front and 25 lbs. rear, but the car then became unsaable on the road, and had a definite inclination to tramp every time the brakes were applied.
