Phil,
I'm not sure about the tires by themselves but the dealer said the weight for a tire and tube was 24.5 kilos. I'll admit to guessing at the weight of my tires using this figure. Regards, Jim

four months later.......
Got a call today from the tire dealer in Dallas that had ordered my Trelleborg tires for the C8.
Went and picked them up, and they look better than expected. Thanks, David

Tubes
Would you by chance know what the brand and part number is for the tubes you are using with the 9.00x13's?
I have been searching in Ottawa for a quite a while now and have had no luck finding anything that will work. Thanks, J

Jason, have you spoken with the folks at Frisby tire? The south Ottawa / Queensdale branch deals more in truck and farm tires than most of their other branches. When I wanted 9x16 tubes their only question was "how many, with which valve stem style?".

Jim Fraser up at Arnprior sold me some metric tubes that were close enough for my (Israeli) 9.00 x 13 tires. The have held air just fine for two years now but I had to get some RV extenders to bring the air inlets round from the back of the wheel. I would really like to get some better looking tires though.

If you look in old farm type tire shops that have been in business for quite a while you can come up with 14 or 15 inch tubes with the bent metal valve stem like you need. They don't make them anymore though. Another option is replacement metal stems that glue in place.
Keep your old liners since you can't get any more of them either. You can take a 16 inch liner and split it and taper the ends to make it work.

Those are nice looking rubber, I myself like the UNIMOG type tires for 4x4 CMP's BUT Im told they do not meet CDN DOT regs , as everyone here I know that has a x Swiss MOG has to have the tires replaced before they can get it to pass inspection in BC, too bad as Id love to find 4 I think they are 10:50x20 tires. If anyone knows of 5 good ones Id still kinda be interested as a loophole might be able to be used to just get them by inspection.
