I know this topic has been raised several times before but the technology is advancing at such a pace I thought I'd share for those interested. With neat, modular powertrain components such as the Bosch e-axel and similar, conversion to electric seems more realistic. https://youtu.be/4k5TDZ6irG4?t=1...
I have these on mine - http://www.general-tire.co.uk/Van-Tyres/Eurovan-Winter" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and they've performed great so far. Worth checking out, excellent traction, load rating and available as 185 R 14 (I run this size).
Perhaps make contact with Huw, he did the 100W solar on my van (excellent job) and would be able to give you some expert advice - http://www.solar-guru.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; or @solarguruhuw on Twitter.
I've just put these on my syncro and very pleased so far. Can't comment on longevity yet as they've probably only done 400 miles. http://i1053.photobucket.com/albums/s480/m4tt_11/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpslvubyqy6.jpeg [/URL] http://www.mytyres.co.uk/cgi-bin/rshop.pl?dsco=110&typ=R-223879&pa...
