Default 9.00-13's

Hi Tony

we meet again , on this forum this time .

We really cannot be picky when it comes to 9.00 -13 's , we are lucky to get any at all as they are a old and odd size from the 1930's .

Theys seem to made for the rural trade , orchadists use them on spraying trailers etc. The chances of buying modern Nylon 9.00 - 13's with the old WW2 lazy S Dunlop tread are NIL . The moulds dont exist anymore .

For road use in Hot Australia , dont take a chance with 50 year old cotton cord 6 ply tyres . Those MRF's are OK , yes they look modern , but they are SAFE .

Mike
