Default What about........

Not much on 11:00 even looking for private individual postings.....BUT.....
What about the 16.5 Hummer tires available everywhere....?

Thinking about how tight the regular 16 inch 9:00 tires were when we installed them on yard rims. In fact some even advocated shaving the bead to make them fit better. We opted for sandblasted rims painted with Slick glossy POR 15 and lots of snotty tire lub and grunts.

I wish I could borrow just one surplus Hummer tire to try and see how they fit on a CMP rim........ or would the CMP 6.5" rim width be a problem...?

Comments from the peanut gallery welcomed...... if the readily available 16.5 tires worked we would be in heaven.

Cheers

Bob C
