Four tires 125 SR12 on ebay.

Isn't this dodgy, tyres have a lifespan?

Yeah I think he says on the description that they should only be for show or low milage... No good for me going to Portugal!

Hope you never drove that car faster than 2 mph  :$
So here is a question for the experts , all of the 126s I have owned , apart from the Bis, had inner tubes fitted as standard. So did the later Polish models go tubeless ?

Strange. I thought car tires with inner tubes no longer existed. We had a Fiat 600D which had inner tubes but it was a 1962 model. We bought used steel rims from a Fiat 850 to go tubeless.
