Tim Sture Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 I understand that these are the best tyres to get to fit my ex-Academy 7, with standard 13" wheels. The current wheels are the Avon CR322s, which I keep forgetting to check the size of before posting this request. ISTR they are 185/70s - but don't think I can get 185/70s in the RE 720s. Do I have to get 185/65s or 185/60s? Where's the best place to buy? I have checked Polley's website but they don't mention RE 720's.

bl0498 Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 Tim, You will need 185/60 RE720's. (I have these) Try BMTR in Birmingham - they will sell these tyres and scrub them down to 4mm if you wish too. Hope this helps. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bl0498 Posted March 19, 2002 Share Posted March 19, 2002 Tim, RE720's are the tyre of choice for the hillclimb and sprinting fraternity on 13inch wheels in the roadgoing classes and hence have to use List 1A tyres. For more general use clearly A021R's etc would be a contender - but they are not List 1A. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Sture Posted March 20, 2002 Author Share Posted March 20, 2002 Brian Yes I want for sprinting/hillclimbing purposes - need to stick with list 1A - sorry I wasn't clear to start with. Thanks for the answers chaps. Tim It's grim oop north Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
