Dear all,
I am in need for new tyres, in 2001 I was able to purchase Nankang cross ply tires off the shelf (produced for caravans I think). I do acknowledge it was a long time ago but recently I spoke with tyre outlets and unsurprisingly they do no stock them except for white wall cross ply tyres provided by a an Antique tyre outlet, although the prices quoted were crazy expensive, to say the least.
Can someone tell me if I can locate these 'original' tyres from anywhere but an antique tyre provider? Or is this the only option?
Perhaps it is time to just put radials on the vehicle, taking into account I am used to driving with the archaic cross ply's and like the nostalgia of them I really don't want to change to radials.
Regards
Shane

I think Antique tyres will be your only option mate
When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.
