Just give the club offices in Bristol a ring and they should put you on the right track..........i thought it was an item in the magazine somewhere too

Max sorry you could not get any joy re the Vredestien tyres but evidently the powers that be are in the USA on holiday.
Looking through the "wheels Tyres" section of this forum i find under "quiet tyres" an answer to this particular problem and had forgetten it.......its obviously too late now but maybe for future reference you never know.......i have the same size tyres as yours and i bought a set of Pirelli
Semetrico tyres brand new from a guy at Stoneliegh Spares Day for £400.
I havnt fit them yet so cant report on progress.......Joe
