A superior Blockley quality steel belted radial tyre with "full diameter", size 185 R 14 with a good H (130mph) speed rating. This size can also be called 185/80 R 14).

This tyre size is also available from Blockley in a White wall version.

This Blockley 185 R 14 is a modern designed full size "80 profile" steel belted Radial tyre, with a good speed rating and period correct tread pattern, designed in house. 

We were encouraged to produce this size by HKT Reifen in Germany to meet a requirement from the Mercedes Benz Pagoda Club chairman, who wanted a better quality tyre than the unimpressive and expensive whitewall Michelins they were having to use. So while we were at it we also made a standard black wall tyre 185R14 shown here while we were at it, which we were being asked to make . . .

If you require a wider version of a 185R15 tyre size, this would be the 205/70VR15 which we also produce.

Every one of these tyres is inspected and checked for dynamic balance - The small painted yellow circle on the side wall can be aligned with the valve stem by the tyre fitter so they know the optimum place to put it. We perform this additional inspection process as we are determined to supply the best possible no-compromise product.
