A popular Rolls Royce Silver Ghost fitment. The Blockley 500 x 23 is of a design build quality which is unsurpassed in any other brand of tyre available. Driving on this tyre compared to anything else will be a total and utter revelation! Our prototype set were tested on an H6 Hispano Suiza in the U.S.A.
Although 33x5 is the Straight Sided number associated with 5.00x23, remember that the Blockley 33x5 tyre is so much larger in diameter than other brands of 33x5 sold today which are all so much smaller than they were in period. So let us know what car you have that you want the 5.00x23 tyres for, because it's possible that our 32x4 1/2 tyre (also made for a 23" wheel size) would be more suitable. If you need any advice on any of this feel free to contact us at Blockley.
