After having my rostyles refurbed by R.J.Spratley (excellent work by the way) i have decided to try and locate either a supplier of 185 14 h tyres with a 13mm white band or a firm who can scorch in a coloured band into a tyre that i can supply.I believe there used to be such a firm in the u.k. that can do this but so far unable to find a contact.There are one or two tyre companies who can supply american tyres but only with a 75 aspect ratio so thats no good.I know of others who would like this done to their cars especially a red band seen on north american cars apparently...so,can anyone help??
 
Only thing I've seen is a company called Bravado Automotive, advert in Practical Classics for "Whitewall Trims", and "WhiteBand", not quite sure what they are but the picture looks about right, might be worth a call, 01932 858248
 
Cooper is an American brand and they do a line of classic whitewall and white ban tyres, aslo in Red band.

look on the net for suppliers, although I remember a custom/us biast wheel and tyre emporiam near Fleet used to stock them.

PS good luck with the paint !
 
Ron, you may well be thinking of North Hants Tyres. If not chances are they'll have what you're looking for rich
