I did buy these tyres and am reasonably happy with them. They are a bit smaller though. According to the add only 3/4" but the seller thought this meant diameter instead of width. They actually are 4" smaller in diameter.
Still, they look ok and give a good ride on the gun. The original 8.25x10 Firestones made the gun jump all over the road.
