Help needed with Tyres

Post by psoorma »

Hi,
I just bought a Morris Minor for a restoration project two days ago. Two of the tyres are completely gone on it. I am desperately looking for a tyre or two for it just so I can roll my Morris into the garage. If anyone can help me or advise me on where I could pick up a fairly decent priced tyre easily it would be much appreciated. I am based in Leeds, North Yorkshire.

Thanks to a very helpful Morris Minor owner, I have now managed to get ours into the garage safely.

Hi,
Toyo's are the ones I buy and fit tubeless on my standard wheels and have done ever since I bought Abby six years ago.
They're very reasonably priced and last well. I also swap rear to front and fit the new on the rear each time, helps save the pennies!! :D
If you do this though don't forget to swap the passenger side / drivers side around.
Links attached.
Best wishes,
Mike.
