Simex 9.00-16 Tyres

[Neil Ashley]

I was speaking to a friend yesterday who told me that Simex had been taken over and the new parent company was not allowing any more T24 tyres to be supplied directly to european customers.

The story went that they considered that the European market was already being adequately catered for in this type of tyre.

Any supplies in future will have to come via dealers outside europe.

Simex also apparently do a 11.00-20 tyre with the T24 tread, so this news if correct is disappointing. Any comments?
