900X13/6 ND tires

Any idea of if they fit the Bofors gun carriage?

It is my belief that they do. I have a full set of originals on mine, and some spares in the back shed, but all are 60 years old. I can get any details off the sidewalls to compare with someone who has a set on an 8cwt to compare.

I'll be at the MVPA convention in a couple of weeks, and I'll mention to Wallace that I am in for a set or so. Hopefully if others do the same he will get to these.

Are the same size exactly as 8 cwt tires. My friend pulled off the tires (almost new) on my Bofors towing equipment and used them on his Ford 8 cwt.
Big time different rims though. Bofors rims look like car roms.

That's good news. I was wondering the other day about what was going on with this size, and hoping Wallace had not dropped the project.

He puts the notice that they are coming in the last couple of issues of Supplyline.

Is there a conclusive answer on the thread pattern of these tyres yet? And Ply?

Do you know if they are the same weight capacity as well as the same size? I'm away from reference materials right now.
