It's time for this reminder again. Remember kids, say not to Stomil. It translates as "100 miles" which is how long they last.

HH-R Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I wonder what the minimum order is to have your name slapped on a ditch finder? Would be cool to have auto shite branded tyres. Skut, LightBulbFun, catsinthewelder and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The weakest link in a vehicles safety, comfort and handling is the tyre - both it's condition and quality, so why not name your offering after a well known weakness which led to the downfall of a hero?

warch Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I was idly inspecting a slightly shitey looking DAF LF tipper at work (as you do) and noticed some interesting (for a given value of interesting) tyre names that I thought I might disseminate on here... N/S rear outer was the Double Coin (Not pictured the Fulda on the O/S rear) N/S front had the Triangle tyre (apparently one of the world's biggest tyre makers) The O/S front was also a Triangle (going by the triangle emblem) but with the tyre name in forrin. timolloyd, bunglebus, stonedagain and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutty2006 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Aye I’ve seen a few Double Coin tyres on trucks. Mainly tippers and bin wagons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another marketing genius at work - lets call a traditionally very round object after a well known pointy one with straight sides. Brilliant.

bunglebus Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I have just had the pleasure* of sitting above a Triangle driving from Essex to Frankfurt. I can confirm they are indeed, triangular. 20200202_114102 by RS on Flickr 20200202_093340.mp4 LightBulbFun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shep Shepherd Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 A pair of 'Sailfish' tyres on the back of a four year old Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Good luck with that. RobT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazoli Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Ahhh I spy a Davanti tyre there, woman at work put a set of 4 on her new civic for under 180 quid then wondered why the car suddenly became a handful as she'd replaced the worn out continentals it came with new, surprise surprise the worn out contis on 2mm had significantly more grip than the brand new Davanti's. Cheap chinese shit, don't do it folks. bunglebus and Shep Shepherd 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
