The tyre guru. Great video, cheers. :)
Dougal will soon release car tires 😁
the sound ! the sound !!!!!!!! 🙁
Gruesome music and a shame it didn't do more than 14mph
Ace video!
Just bought a 1974 2002, and mostly stock but with a Weber carb and a 5 speed, but nothing major done under the hood. Curious about the Michelin XDX or the XAS, vs the CN36. Any help and info with the pro's and con's of each, what's the real difference between each of them etc. Also, I'm looking to keep it as stock and stock looking as possible.
Dougal is pregnant 😁
Was he in prison? 😀
Who is the hippy? 😀
I swear my 912 has backup tires still from 1970 looking at those treads
I have a tire question. What do you think would be the tallest and maybe widest tire i could put on stock 15" 1963 beetle rims. Car is stock height. I just want to maybe get more miles per hour on the hgihway with a taller wheel right now i have 165 80 r 15 as the tire size thanks
Fix the audio, dork.
nice drive. I thought the Healy was going to slide into you for a moment. Fine recovery.
Made in Preston you could drive at 17 one a motorcycle licence....🇬🇧
nice potato cam
Thank you so much for this information. Seemingly quite difficult to find anywhere else online
Is it running on Dunlop R5 tyres? Or on radials?
He is pregnant and will soon give birth to a car tire😁
Yes, you can make a lot of money with tires 😁
go to the hairdresser 😝
why doesn't the rubber king answer? 🤨
Sniffed too much plasticizer 😁
I like your video. Would you like to comment on internal differences between tube-type and tubeless tires? Vintage tubeless tires will be smooth on the inside to be "friendly" with an inner tube. Tubeless tires most often have a lot of molding flash inside which can be harsh when in contact with an inner tube. A cheap ot thin inner tube will often crack and leak due to the molding flash in a tubeless tire. People recommend thick or heavy brand name tubes to cope with this situation. Do you think a good inner tube is sufficient to use in a tubeless tire on a wire wheel? Or would you recommend grinding the inside of a tubeless tire to remove molding flash if using a tube? Or would you recommend only using "tube type" tire on a wire wheel? Tube type tires have become very difficult to find in North America. I need 165-80-15 radial tires for my vintage MG MGA, and the modern supply in that size is almost always tubeless type tires with molding flash inside.

Hey I got a question so I am going to start daily driving my 1974 2002 with the 165 HR 13 tires would you recommend going to the next size up?
the michelin is poor tyre in rain . The next is 185/70r13 but aks BMW what rims and technical requirements your car needs.
Have you checked the comprehensibility of your comment? And it is Porsche with an spoken e in the end… you spell it a little bit like an a. It is not not a Porsch
Who is this man ? But he doesn't store the expensive tires properly. 🤨
Is there such a serious businessman?🤨
Je suis intéressé
Bonsoir
Love this guy - he really knows his onions.
I was 11 (maybe 12) playing in my little, city park when I first saw a gold Lamborghini Mira. It was wearing these tires. I was gobsmacked. The owner was most gracious and took me for a very short ride. I will forever think that these are the only, proper tires for a sports car. If they would just make them in say a 15" that would fit under my NB Miata fenders, I would have them. Or, if I could afford a Dino. ;)
Bonjour
My 1953 Morris minor MM has been stood for 25 yrs so I need new tyres. If I order 155/80/14 for home drive start, will they know it's inner tubes and bring them? (I'm in Rotherham so recommendations appreciated)
My Dad said they were the best and had them on his Wolsley 6
Love the content Dougal, but let’s be honest - the quality of this video is… let’s call it ‘not up to date’. Would love for you to make a new series of these videos
Looks like some thing from wacky recess. ( children's cartoon from the 70's)
This long haired bloke is in his early 70s now !!
I am looking for 4.50- 4.75-16 for my std 8
Peccato che questi video non sono tradotti in italiano
They were awful tires not worthy of being classified as a performance tire (even back in the late 70s). Poor traction in the dry and truly terrible in the wet, quick wearing and expensive. I used them on a 1982 Mustang GT, I drove that car for about 10 years and went through 5 sets of summer TRX and 2 sets of winter TRX.
Ottima gomma x i tempi
I bought a set of four of these tyres direct from Longstone last year (2021) for my 1936 Austin 7 Ruby. I am very pleased with the excellent service from Longstone and with the tyres, they look the part. The car now handles like a 1936 Austin 7 should. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Thank you very much.
An impossible presentation, does the seller not have long trousers? 😁
Have you considered updating this to include the brilliant 185/70r14 Cinturato CN36? I bought a set from you for my 1990 Spider and they're fantastic!
3 wheeled piece of crap yak.
Thank you!
