Alvis - Alvis 12/60
The Alvis 12/60 was produced from 1931, a sportier shorter wheelbase version, alongside the earlier 12/50 TJ from which it evolved. The 12/60 TK introduced in 1931 and 12/60 TL from 1932 both had twin SU carburettors and a higher compression ratio using the well tried and tested 1645 cc four cylinder engine. The 12/60 was available as a sporting saloon, a 4 seater sports and the 2 seater body known as the"Beetelback".
Alvis 12/60 tyre size was originally the 500x20, and Blockley manufacture the perfect tyre we mark "475/500x20" which we produced to the best quality with a correct looking tread pattern. Not to be confused with the other brands of low grade 500x20 tyres! We were persuaded to make this Blockley 475/500x20 size by Alvis owners who were fed up of the offerings from the Classic tyre wholesalers.
