Thanks Chris.So I note that pressure varies from 20 to 32 psi, depending I suppose of the tyres manufacture, but that's a large extent anyway.

Yes Renaud, I have read that Longstones need significantly more pressure than Avons - though no personal experience.

RE: Tyres? - Austin Nippy - 18-12-2020
Hi everyone,
For what it's worth, I've put Longstone Tyres on the Nippy a couple of years ago. They work really well although the recommended 30 psi proved a bit "bouncy" at first. I now run them at 24 and they're great.
Best wishes for Christmas and, hopefully, a better 2021...Nick

I really like Longstone, the look, the ride and roadholding. Also I run them at 24psi.

I have a set of 3.25 x 19 Dunlop k70s on the 65 they actually fit in the spare wheel well inflated
Not best on a Heavy Seven but fine on a light 2 seater.
I also have a set of 3.50 x 19 Avon SM and a pair of 3.25 x 17 Avon SM which I use on the rear for tarmac hillclimbs Best time at Wiscombe with these on the back.
