Just take a look at the alternative tyres sold in this size, available elsewhere! Our Blockley 600/650x18 tyre was made by popular demand, particularly for owners of cars like the bigger Lagonda's such as LG45, LG6 and V12 examples. Note that this tyre has the correct and authentic slimmer overall width compared to many alternative tyres produced today, in particular the Michelin, which because it is far too fat overall rubs on suspension components when in use - and these Michelins cost an additional £115 plus vat = £140 a piece more than our superior Blockley - no wonder they post them out for free, or heavily subsidised postage! The 600/650x18 Blockley tyres will not rub on the track rod ends of these Lagonda's under cornering! It is unfortunate that so many Lagonda owners have had to resort to having to get their steering arms bent (and shortening their track rod length) in order to fit the Michelin tyre that clearly was not researched correctly and built to incorrect dimensions! For interest, the altering of these steering arms also alters the ackerman angle of the steering causing adverse effects over how the cars were designed. The Blockley 600/650x18 tyre is produced with our unique 5 stud tread pattern, and will be a revelation in handling and ride quality to all who use them - why would anyone buy anything else? What may appear the reasonable price of these tyres is only because we sell our Blockley tyres direct to the end user and garages / restoration shops.

All Blockley Cross (Bias) ply tyres are made to fit the original rim widths, something many manufacturers have forgotten about over time. In addition these are tyres for genuine road use, with a robust sidewall and covering, capable of being 'curbed' as you would expect from a tyre suitable for road use.  We wanted a suitable mid 1930's - 50's look. The compounding of all our cross (Bias) ply tyres conform to FIA Appendix K which uses Dunlop 204 compound as it used to be, as reference hardness. 

All Blockley tyres are made using new moulds and tooling and a high level of quality control, resulting in a product of unsurpassed quality, roundness and conformity. As with all Blockley products, if we are not making the best then there is no point in making it. And finally, do not forget to use our perfectly fitting "Blockley Superior" inner tubes to suit, sized correctly, thick, and made from the best material butyl - and when fitted to wire wheels we also make the rim bands.
