Default Seeking 9.00x16 Tyres

I am looking for 9.00x16 tyres suitable for British/Canadian rims for CMP 15cwt. It seems that these are getting a bit rare these days. Does anyone have any suggestions of possible suppliers in UK or Continental Europe, please? Many thanks for any pointers given.
Cheers
James

James,

See new 9.00-16 tyres for WD split rim wheels. The MRF tyres are the only ones available (at least until recently) which really fit CMP rims without any alterations to rim or tyre bead, nor excessive force to fit them.

I know jeeparts.nl (used to) have them. Give Joop a call and tell him I´ve sent you.

Regards,
Hanno

Hanno,
I have contacted Joop, and he says that he does not have any in stock but he does have them on order, although he does not know when they will be shipped/arrive. I will watch his website to see when he announces them. Many thanks again for your help.
Cheers/James

Smile 9.00 x 16 tyres

good day, There are 8 off 9.00 x 16 bar grips on uk e bay today,item 300273312876 check listing under MILITARY TYRES
ending within 24 hours, ie 22nd nov.
These were standard spec on LANDROVER 101 INCH FORWARD CONTROL , Trader selling them is in HAMPSHIRE. Maybe you can get a bargain if you can afford to buy them all, Really you need to know load speed index to check load rating is suitable for the intended application, Maybe your main tyre company will have a technical data book that you can cross reference your exsisting tyres with.
good luck Stephen
