We cannot at the moment visualise any further modifications to our existing mould, but we have a mould on order with tread pattern similar to our present one but with a different proportioning of grooves and ribs. As soon as this is available we shall make further tyres and shall be pleased to have your comments on this new design.

Yours faithfully,
THE AVON INDIA RUBBER CO. LTD.,
