I'd be in for a set or two, and there are many dozens interested British/Canadian vehicle owners here in The Netherlands. Most if not all would want to know technical details (load, speed and legal ratings), if they fit British rims and the price, before committing to buy. Very interested to see how this develops ![]()

Gentlemen: I just spoke with Ryan and he has requested the info that we are all looking for. He has also requested one/two tires as samples to try out and give us a report. Getting info out of China is not the easiest thing in the world. So we'll cross one bridge at a time and see where all this goes.
Keep you posted either way......Robert |

You said good news and bad news. What was the good news?
The specs look good. Weight rating of 3373 pounds when mounted in singles is enough even to handle a KL welding lorry. Any word from them if there is a speed restriction? On photos that I saw earlier, it would appear that they will require some skiving to go straight onto the cmp rims, but that is not unusual. |

Thank you for taking the lead on this project and I hope you have the patience of Job. Sounds like this is catch 22, they can send a picture of a tire but, have no tire to send for a sample. They probably wont produce several tires for a sample but, want a commitment for 100 sets. We await further developments. Gord |

"Standard rim 6.5H" means these tyres are for American rims which are 6.5-inch wide. Commonwealth spilt rims are 6-inch wide, and of course 0.25-inch larger in diameter.
If this pattern is available on the European market I would turn down my rims to make them fit, though! Did anyone have any luck sourcing these? Thanks, Hanno
