They are only 3.5 x 19 inch 6 ply walls (I think). I haven't check them but they are supposed to be 3.75 from memory. |

My mistake, they are 3.75 in., and on the sidewall they say 6 ply, and in another place they say 4 ply tread and 2 ply wall.

It's going to take a little while before I fit mine so I should be able to see what others think. At worst I'll use them on the third wheel. |

I've fitted one of the new tyres as the pusher to see how it performs. If it does 4,000k's I'll be very happy.
Quality - I imagine these tyres are used all over China so I'm sure they will be reasonably serviceable. Ben is trying to establish a market in Australia so I don't think he will risk that with inferior products.

Done some checking after I also thought PR related to the ply of a tyre and found this definition :-
"PR NUMBER
The designation, ply number, refers to the tyre load index. The PR number does not refer to the number of plies in the tyre. "
The ply of the new tyres I received were 4 ply walls, 4 ply tread.

Yes "quality" - they are made in China.
Have to see how they go.
Chris, we will check yours and discuss with glass in hand when you call in after KI.
