  1. RMS started following WW2 tyres and rims, NEW Track grip style tyres, MORE! 10.50-16 and Dingo and Ex Army MAN SV Registration
  2. RMS
    Ok, so now that we have made, sold and fitted the 900-16 track grip style tyres, we are now planning on 10.50-16 next! and possible 700-18 for Daimler dingo (depending on interest) so the first step is to gauge the interest in these tyre sizes, if people could reply with a comment on the size and number they would be interested in. only the sizes mentioned above for mow. also spread the word on other groups you maybe members of. it will take a bit of time but hopefully not as long as the 900's took! we have an original WD 10.50-16 to use as a pattern and will be looking for a dingo

    For the Ferret owners out there, the tyres fit your wheels perfectly, same bead dimensions as RF.

    Sure, these pictures are from Ian West's LRC. The Turret is turned manually.

    The turret on the LRC does rotate 360 degrees on a very simple turret ring comprising of some angle iron and 3 bearings! nothing fancy 🙂 the little doors in the top of the turret are big enough to get your head out of and maybe a shoulder if your small enough. the main hatches are much bigger and this is where the BOYS rifle was fired from. On a side note i have since sold this Morris and its now joined another Morris LRC up in Cumbria that was restored by Debbie and Paul at Rusty trucks.

    Hi Everybody, Finally some good news! production is happening as i type. So hopefully some tyres will be with us soon. To save me sending a million messages 🙂 1, they should be in the UK in the next couple months 2, final price not known yet as we still have shipping, customs etc, as soon as e know i will update. Bulkk orders will be discounted 3, they are 16" so will be a tight fit on British Rims, i will fit one as soon as they arrive.

    Hi Everybody, Finally some good news on the tyre project, We anticipate production to happen this month, Finally!! all being well tyres will be in the UK in the spring. i will upload some pictures once they have been produced.

    Probably a good idea to contact the Heavy goods team as DVSA as you'll need to book a "first" MOT/plating, which when i did it for a Unimog was quite an involved job in itself! as you cant book a slot without the vehicle having a "Plate" so they had to issue us with a temporary plating then we could book the MOT slot. The MOT will need to be done before DVSA registration. Once we had made the initial contact with the heavy good team they were very helpful.

    PM sent, will take the lot.

    Just a waiting game at the moment, we're waiting on the company to produce them still. as its a small batch we have to wait our turn! frustrating but we will get there.
  16. RMS
    Hi all, quick update on the tyres, we are just waiting on the production company to get on with them! we keep chasing them up but unfortunately no date for receiving them set it stone yet. we will get there in the end, as soon as i have a date set on them arriving on the uk i will update. sorry to anyone waiting on them, we are at the mercy of the production.
