Statement of Interest: New Production 10.50-16 (R-3) Implement Tires
After much consideration since a 10.50-16 (R-3) or similar size tire once available cannot be obtained, I have decided to attempt to make this a reality… I know it won't be easy, but I am willing to give it my best shot; hopefully with your help as hobby enthusiasts...
The preliminary specifications of the tire are:
Overall Diameter: 886.90 mm or 34.91"
Section Width: 254 mm or 10.0"
Sidewall height: 215 mm or 8.46"
Classification: Agriculture-Industrial Equipment/Implement
Construction: Bias Ply (TL/TT)
Certification: Same as the existing 10:50 x 16 Chevron tires. This will be considered an implement/Agricultural tire...
WARNING/NOTE: THIS IS NOT a 55-75 MPH HIGHWAY TIRE.
Style: R-3
Ply: 10/12
Thread Depth: 15/32
Standard Rim - flange: 6.0 - 8.00
Max Load Range: 1399 KG or 3086 LBS
Pressure: 3 - 4.5 Bar (43 - 65 PSI)
Load Index: 120 (1399 KG/3086 LBS)
Speed rating: F (50 MPH or 80 KM/H)
Weight: 22.6 KG (49.8 LBS) or as much as 26.3 KG (58 LBS)
Since I have to start from scratch, as of now, the cost per tire is in the $275-$300 range. There will be a $100.00 discount if ordering a set of 5 tires or more... In other words, every 5 tires ordered equals to $100.00 discount.. As for the time frame, 6 to 8 weeks to actually have samples made...
If you are interested or have any suggestions regarding the general specifications, or other questions please reach out... Thank you.
