235
Thats before I put the Fenton Exhaust on it too.
I run 10.50 16's now and it's Ok on the freeway but for the most part i stick to the side roads. Plus I've sorted out the breaks a lot over the years too.

Rolling diameter is the critical dimension....
Hi Hatty
So with a 235...... assuming all the horses have had there daily ration of oats you are running with at least a 50% improvement in HP and 30% in torque over the original 216...... We compared the 9x16 tires next to a 10:50 tire and noticed approx. a 2 inch increase in height..... and almost half way between a 9x16 and a 11x20 tire. The 10:50 does fill the fenderwell nicely. On my current set of 9x16 of which are two Goodyear and two other brands like the Mohawk.... they are still mounted on my C15a........ when resting on the concrete barn floor....all four tires are of different heights...... even the two Goodyear are about an inch different.....over all the four tires there is almost a 2 inch difference....... now it make sense that in the first section of the MB C2 so much attention is written about insuring that tire sizes are properly matched....... I can now understand the stress the driveline of my C15a would have if fully loaded and driven in 4x4....... . Setting up your brakes properly and keeping them up to specs is essential to having dependable brakes...... we are not used to adjusting brakes anymore on oour modern vehicles....... good old days my foot..... noticed how many adjustments are needed after even just a 1000 miles.

Tires for a CMP 16 inch rim
Hi Pedro,
I have a set of 5 Ferett tires that will fit your truck if you are interested and the tread style looks good on a WWII CMP.2 of the tires were mounted on CMP rims but took them off.They will fit right on and the other 3 tires will have to be trimmed on the inside for them to fit good on the rims.I now have my 7-11.00 x 20 tires from Edmonton in my shed and would like to sell the 5 ferett tires before winter.I had dropped the price to $800.00 but winter is getting closer so if you are interested,let me know and you can come over and have a look at them and we can deal! You can call me at 770-7038 anytime before 3:00 pm or after 8:00 pm.  For more pictures look in the for sale or trade section under ferett tires for sale and I took as many pictures as I could to show what I have and condition. Regards,Derk.
