Sector · Aircraft, military & specialist
Specialist fitments sourced through the group.
Some programmes need a tyre that is not on any distributor’s shelf: light-aircraft and ground-support tyres, military-pattern sizes for defence vehicle builders and refurbishers, and narrow row-crop or high-clearance sizes for sprayer and specialist-machinery manufacturers. We source and hold these through the GB Tyres group.
Who we supply: Sprayer and specialist agricultural machinery builders · defence vehicle builders and refurbishers · light-aircraft maintenance and GSE suppliers · one-off and low-volume machine builders
