This Blockley 185/70 VR 13 is a exceptional quality steel belt construction Radial ply tyre, having an excellent speed rating with superb looking period correct tread pattern, designed in house. This is a V rated (149mph) tyre available direct from Blockley Tyre Co. for an unbelievable £99 plus tax. This is because we only sell our tyres direct to the end user and workshops, and not via the "Classic" tyre wholesalers, so there are no extra margins to cater for in between! Scrub these tyres in for a little (ie drive normally for say 30 miles), drive 1,000 or so miles on them, and if they are not the best tyres you have ever driven on we will give a refund. These Blockley 185/70VR13 tyres are E Marked and DOT marked (for use in the USA).
This 185/70R13 tyre size is a wider version of a 165R13 size (a size also produced by Blockley), so our 185/70VR13 tyre is sometimes used by customers wanting a wider tyre with the same diameter as a "80 profile" 165R13.
Every one of these tyres is inspected and checked for dynamic balance - The small painted yellow circle on the side wall can be aligned with the valve stem by the tyre fitter so they know the optimum place to put it. We perform this additional inspection process as we are determined to supply the best possible no-compromise product.
