Hi,
Hopefully someone can help us.
We are struggling to find any replacement tyres. A local tyre fitter has informed us that there are no tyres of the required size in the country, and does not know when they will be delivered in.
The size we require are:
195/70/14 N
Can anyone advise where we can get them from or what alternate tyres (if any) we can put on our caravan?
Any help greatly appreciated
Thanks
Karen

The alternative size usually fitted is 185/80X14C. This size is available no problem & is a commercial van tyre so should be of sufficient load rating for even a large caravan. It is about an inch more in diameter than your existing tyre which won't be a problem.

Have a look on web sites below

http://www.mytyres.co.uk/cgi-bin/rshop.pl  these are deld prices but can be priced for fitting (see tick box on website) I have used mytures seveal times, dely is usually around 7 days and delivery can be tracked from when tyres leave the hub in Germany

http://lovetyres.com/search/tyres/195-70-14

http://www.oponeo.co.uk/tyre-finder/van-tyres-195-70-r14

I have not used the other two suppliers so cannot comment on dely times etc, hope this helps

I've recently used Event Tyres who supplied, delivered and fitted on my driveway. There are search results showing 195/70 R14, but you don't mention the load or speed rating of the tyre you need to confirm any further.
Perhaps take a look and do a search for your full spec.
