Re:- New Dunlop "90" Tyres.

We have been asked by one or two prospective purchasers of the new 3 1/2-litre Bentley our opinion of the new Dunlop "90" tyres. Although we naturally recommend our standard tyres namely, IndiaProduction 20 HP. with 4-speed box and Front Wheel Brakes, I should be glad if you would kindly let me know whether you have yet tried these tyres out, and if you think they would be suitable for the Bentley.
