Contd. -2- HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/TMW4/LG16.12.20. this, we think, destroys the most prominent feature of the tyre. We handed a set of these tyres over to Col. Harker for use on the School car and he confirms these complaints. They have worn very well and given no trouble and we think that for heavy work, such as, a light lorry or shooting brake theynare possibly all that is claimed for them, but we cannot recommend them for our standard touring car.
