Alvis Silver Eagle Tyres
- The Alvis Silver Eagle originally fitted 525 - 20 crossply tyres, we now recommend the 4.75/5.00 x 20 Firestone for light handling tyres.
- Alvis cars of this era were all fitted with innertubes. The ideal tube for the 475/500 Firestone and Ensign tyres is the Michelin 20/21CD.
- If you are wanting larger Alvis Silver Eagle tyres the 5.50 x 20 Lucas or the 4.50/4.75/5.00x20 Ensign B5 are ideal.
- For 5.50 x 20 Lucas tyres the Michelin 19/20H innertube offers the best fit.

History of the Alvis Silver Eagle
The Silver Eagle, first launched in 1929, was redesigned for 1934, with a stronger X-braced frame and a new all-synchromesh four-speed gearbox. The Alvis six-cylinder engine generated 60-70bhp and was available in either 2148cc or 2,362cc sizes. This allowed for a top speed of approximately 75mph, with comfortable cruising at 60mph.
