Excellent tyres.
Really suit the M3W. Improved basically on all points compared to the Avons.
And no...they don't pay me!

Ditto what he said. Love mine.


What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.

had email contact with the salesman at blockleys. if my harley-shop-friend is ordering them: sending 2 tyres and 2 tubes to switzerland is 203 pounds (that's incl. shipping). he gets 15% off as a dealer. so thats a go for me, because my avons are to soft and wore down on the inside because the track-alignment is not right! when they did the steering comfort kit at the morgan dealers shop here in switzerland, they did not do again the alignment!!! so when i get the new tyres and the new front-left wishbone then i drive to the dealer and do all those things right!

I have about 80 miles on a new set of Blockley tires. The front end seems a little more planted on the road.
We are leaving on a 1,300 mile jaunt tomorrow morning and I will report back upon completion barring all the issues we read about daily on this site....:)

Take care to break in (run in)your new tyres, 80 kph max for 80 to 100 km. They are likely to last longer if you do. By the way if you buy a new car with a spare wheel, fit it & do as above. It releases some chemicals in the rubber so it will not deteriorate as fast. I wonder how many SUVs with a spare on the back in the light effectively have a useless spare?

Tim.
