    What heavy tread has been seen?

    I have ben told that they are an option and close to 700 x 16 which I think are optimal. I have 750 x 16 and they are too higher geared.
    Toyo list them

    Can't find the ply-rating but it states it has 'a robust casing construction'

    Most likely India or China ATT as linked to above bring in the size your after, just have to get a retailer to get them through them as they only wholesale.

    I actually bought them second hand at Brisbane All British Day a few years ago. They are Pommy ones and the spare still has all of it's ice studs in it.

    I've since bought a set of 750/16's for the Gunbuggy off Gumtree.
