Dear Stanley, The pictures
of your car on the VintageBentleys.org web
site suggest it is a sporting 3 litre in
good order. Replacement of tyres will depend
on the condition of the wheels, if they
are good, and do not need replacing, then
new tyres of a similar size could be fitted.
Availability depends on where you are. If
in USA, many people like locally made tyres,
but they don't look very vintage. In uk,
there is choice, with Blockleys for the
sporting minded, if in your size, but they
may not be, BF goodrich make a very nice
6.00 x 19, maybe also in 20"
As your car is 1925, it would originally
have had beaded edge wheels, but these days,
they are less used, because they are expensive,
wear out quickley and give a harder ride!
Hope this has helped initially. I believe
that some VB's were fitted with 20"
wheels when new, around 1926, but have no
further info.
