As I've considered acquiring a wheeled AFV, it struck me that RF tires would be a pretty cool thing. I've learned that Ferrets were originally equipped with RF tires and inserts. However, a number I've looked at seem to have been refitted with newer ND tread non-RF tires (in one case the inserts were not put back in ). Are there many/any real options for RFs for these old armored cars other than OLD original rubber or NOS? I figure original-type Dunlop RFs are long out of production - my limited webfu didn't turn up any this side of the pond and nothing 'new.' In the case of the Ferret, the U.S. type ND tread certainly doesn't "look" very authentic. Looks are one thing, tires suitable for the vehicle are another.
I am just curious what the options are? Is it anything that the MV community has much of an opinion on - like impact to value?
