|
 |
|
I have 3 perfectly good Continental Crosscontact AT' in the 30 9.50 r15 size fitted to my jeep and have been trying for months to find a fourth. I contacted Continental tyres who claim that the tyre is discontinued in the UK but still freely available on the continent 
Has anyone come across a good source for recently discontinued rubber?

| You could get your local tyre dealer to see if any of the big wholesalers have got one you never know.A mate was in the Czech republic and bought the same size as you are after from www.svetpneu.cz he took them home with him to go on a Jeep he is restoring.

Openeo are based in Poland they could help, you could ask one of the wholesalers if they could perhaps lean on conti to bring one over for you. They sometimes refuse if the tyre is not part of the UK profile but it's worth a shot.
