The UK supplier of Coker tyres has already quoted me a price of £149 plus vat with monthly delivery. The only question as ever is the angle of the bead. The supplier has already said to me they had to machine the rims of their Canadian Dodge. Is this realy necessary or can a tyre fitting machine get them fitted properly.
Neil, Steve Kagi tried to get a run of 10.50-16 directional (chevron type) tyres made. The Coker tyres you refer to are 9.00-16 non-directional (bargrip) tyres, for which a much greater market exists (just think of all those Dodges needing tyres!).

http://www.jeeparts.nl/ offers "900 x 16 Bargrip" tyres for €135,00, I've seen them at a show and they are the Indian MRF brand tyres. I have no idea if these are for British or US rims, but I suspect the latter, again because of all those Dodges!
