Hi all
Jut got my nice new shiny wheels back for my ES2. Spoke to Vinage tyres about sizes and they belivev that it should have 32.5s front and rear. I prefer Sms to K70s and Sms only come in 3.50 and 4.00 rear sizes.
what sizes do people run on this chasis? Will a 3.5 foul anything? Do people agree that 3.25 ribbed front Avon SM and a 3.50 rear SM would be a good combination.
Advice appreciated.
Thanks
Stephen

I don't have a 1937 brochure but 1938 shows the 3.25" tyre front and rear for all the OHV and SV models.
I have Indian-made 3.25 Dunlop Uni-Grips on my 16H which is a nice period looking tyre and I'm quite happy with it. The VMCC are now listing an 'Ensign' in 3.25x19 and it would certainly look the part. I have no idea how it performs though.

Hi,
I'm not sure if you are still looking for a response to this, but just in case. I recently bought an ES2 with a 4.00" rear tyre and this didn't foul anything. The front is a 3.00". Problem for me is that they are both really old tyres, so I need to replace them anyway.
If you have replaced yours, what did you use and how do they perform?
Hope this helps.
