Pete,
I think that I may have approached this company about the possibility of making repro tyres for the Daimler Dingo. It seems the company gets there tyres made for them in the Far East, labour and costs are low. They told me that to make a mould for a tyre would be about £25,000 before the cost of the tyre and with a minimum run of 200 tyres. It does mean that a lot of money has to be put up front before anything will happen. Certainly worth pursueing though.
