The Blockley 165R14 is a authentic designed full diameter "80 profile" steel belted Radial tyre, with a good speed rating and period correct tread pattern, designed in house. Designed initially for Lancia Fulvia and MGB owners who wanted a tyre that is good in wet as well as dry conditions. These are the best tyres you will ever have driven on. These Blockley 165R14 tyres are E Marked and DOT marked (for use in the USA).
The reasonable price of these exceptional tyres (about half the price of the Pirelli Cinturato or Michelin XAS) is only possible because we sell direct to the end user, and not through the Classic tyre Wholesaler "specialists", which means no added mark ups on Blockley tyres.
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.

The oil present in new tyres can cause the stripe to intially discolour this process usually continues until the tyre has completed 2500-3000 miles. To help you combat this it is strongly recommended that you use our whitewall cleaner that can be purchased from our store
