Smile Re: Tires

Tanman,

I used Firestone 820-15 black wall tires from Coker Tire. I have original steel wheels and hubs and am very pleased with their ride and look. The only thing I was not happy about is Coker shipped my tires unpertected and two out of the five had road rash when I received them.

Happy New Year,
Guy

Re: Tires

I forgot to say that I have to run them the 16 and 16.5 together on the rear of my 3500 car hauler.

Re: Tires

Tony, a 235/75R16 converts to 29.88" x 9.25" converting directly, although the actual mounted size could vary depending on the manufacturer.

I have 3 good tread Uniroyal Laredo's in 30x9.50x16.5 which is probably as close as you're gonna get in size if you want to take a look at them.
