Banana tires 900-16

[Erwin]

Good evening,

Does anybody please know a recent supply of new/ as new 900-16 BANANA type tires „ British style“? India eg?
Mine are cracked and torn now beyond MOT road licensing and I need to change them on my Dodge D15 to keep my truck on the road.
Thank you,
Cheers
Erwin

Erwin,

Barry Ring in the UK has done a series of Trak grip tyres in 9.00-16, as well as other period correct, but newly made, MV tyres. I am not sure if he has any left. You can reach him through facebook, but I think he also has an account here on MLU.

MRF tyres are also a popular choice for 9.00-16.

Hi Erwin

If you don't have any luck with Barry Ring , you could look into finding some new Chinese made 900. 16 tyres.

A lot depends on where you are located. You may get lucky and find a local tyre dealer that is willing to help you - f you don't ask you will never know.

A CMP turned up at the Corowa MV event last year, fitted with the Chinese tyes. The owner drove the truck over from West. Australia , he told me the tyres are excellent.

Thank you Alex and Mike. I‘ll see what I can get with your helpful links from here in Eastern Austria…
Have a nice weekend
