Any idea where to buy 9.00 x 13 tubes and tyres in continental Europe? Shipping costs from UK are killer. Prefered pattern on photo.

Jacek,

Search the internet for MRF or Trelleborg dealers. A quick search shows at the Trelleborg tyre are available in the Netherlands, and a further search reveals at least the Trelleborg tyre is also available in Poland.

But, is this meant for your C15? Surely this should have 9.00-16 tyres?

Regards,
Hanno

Yes 9.00- 16 of course

I've checked their offer in Poland and they have only front tyres for agricultural tractors. I will call them on Monday.

Ah yes, in that case, read new 9.00-16 tyres for WD split rim wheels. The British/Canadian 16" split rims are actually larger in diameter than their American counterparts, so any new tyre you buy today (with the exception of the ones mentioned in the first link) will not fit without either turning down the rim or grinding the bead off the tyre. Although some MLU members have been able to fit tyres after properly sandblasting and painting the rims and using ample tyre soap.

The most commonly available 9.00-16 tyres have the NDMS profile:

This is a correct WW2 profile, although not often seen on British/Canadian trucks.

Another option you could look at is the Mitas / Petlas NT-3 tyre:

It comes in 9.00-16, has a suitable profile and is retailed in Poland!

Good luck and let us know what you end up with fitting to your C15.

HTH,

Recently spotted a pair of Firestone 9.00-13 sand pattern tyres at Joop Staman. They look brand new and are made in Switzerland.

Hanno, I saw these too yesterday, and asked, they are 150 euro's each, and he has a set of 5, no more.

They are Firestone brand, and came out of Norway.

Hope this helps,
