Default New production 9.00 X 16 Trak Grip tyres / tires

It goes without saying that for many people who have for a long time been on a hunt similar to a search for Unicorns, the end may be in sight.

It has recent been reported by Barry Ring that he anticipates a production run of these tires to happen very soon and arrival in the UK after that.

There is a quite a long thread over on HMVF about this located here

I would state that I am not related in any way etc etc.

If you need to get a hold of Barry his address block is

Hopefully someone can import a batch in bulk to North America. I would love to have the correct pattern tires on the 25 pounders and limbers.

Default 9:00 x 16'".

Rob/Robin,

Definitely interested in a set for my Lynx. The idea of a bulk order is appealing.

I presume the tyres are made in the Far East - India or China (we've seen pictures of Chinese-made Trak Grip pattern tyres here on MLU, of which one would have to order a minimum of one container load), so I suggest to make arrangements with Barry Ring before they are shipped to the UK. Shipping them directly from China to NA may be the best approach.
