hi Kelly

You made it to MLU ..great

The tyres are a never ending problem it seems . There isn't a easy answer to finding tyres for these little trucks . Quite a few 8 cwt owners just use anything that works ........Ive seen a C8 with standard Chevy car rims on it , the split rim army adapters are removed and normal 6x16 tyres are fitted
