Hi,
   I need some new tyres for my trailer tent but have no idea where to buy them from or what to make of the information on the side of the tyre as it doesnt look like normal tyre information.

The information on the side of the tyre is as follows.
4.00-8 V47 4PR - whats this all mean and can anyone point me in the direction of a website that I can purchase some tyres from.

Thanks very much

CHris

Have you tried your local tyre place - they may be able to help.   If not try somewhere like Towsure or Camperlands.

4.00-8 is the tyre size  

V47 ?

4pr = 4 ply rating.

Thanks every one. I didnt think I would be able to get the complete wheel and tyre for 15 quid - thought I would be paying that for the tyre alone.

Thanks for the links

Chris

Hi, Yes I will be getting them from towsure £15.95 each including the wheel cant be beaten now I know what im looking for. Most places wanted 13-14 quid a tire and by the time I paid somebody to swap them over I may as well have got smart new wheels as well.

Towsure have always been a company tht has great prices, I have been using them for years and still cannot fault any aspect of buying from them long distance, even the largest of parcels has been delivered inside the 48 hour delivery time all year round, wish all company's were that good!

You do surprise me Papa Pip, my experience of towsure's delivery is very poor. I will always remember placing an order with them and paying extra for the express delivery. My father placed an order the following day, only paying for standard delivery. Guess who got their order first!

Their priced are excellent, I've used them since and I would use them again. But if you are in a hurry, I cannot recommend towsure.

There's no such thing as common sense; it there were we'd all have some.

Well I have come accross the towsure expo site which is offering 10% and foc delivery so my wheels and tyres are down to about £26.00 for 2 all in and including delivery. Even if it takes a month to arrive I cant really complain at that price.

Hi Sonic, never tried express delivery just the standard post and always recieved within the set time that they quoted. I have heard others say that they have had problems with delivery but I am one of those who has not had any bother, even when I lived in a small farm cottage 5 miles from the nearest village or town!

Maybe one of these times I will try the express delivery, as yet I have not been in a hurry for goods.
