Framed Prints From Memory Lane
Framed Print of The largest tyre ever made to date (27th October 1978) by Dunlop
The largest tyre ever made to date (27th October 1978) by Dunlop, seen here on its arrival at Fort Dunlops test centre in Birmingham. It weighs 2 and 1/4 tons, as much as a Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, can support a load of 40 tons and costs £ 6000. The Mini 1275 GT uses Dunlops smallest road tyre and the monster tyre contains enough tread rubber for 400 Mini tyres.
