I don't suppose we need to tell you you've described them as 12.00-16's in the body of the listing?

Howard are you sure that they are RADIALS? I purchased a set from Bandiana a while ago and found out the hard way that they were rags not radials. Just asking Regards Rick.

Rags/Radials
Interesting, Rick.
On the side of my tyres is "12.00R20". I'm not sure about Truck tyres, but I know for certain "R" is for radial with light vehicle tyres... Can anyone confirm the same for truck tyres? HH

ARRRrrr
I thought "R" was a speed rating? I just checked in this is the speed rating calculator....
http://www.tyresave.co.uk/tyrspeed.html It should state on the tyre whether it is radial-ply. It seems that what we call cross-plies others call bias-ply. |

|
||||
Speed Rating
On light vehicle tyres, the speed rating is at the end of the code.
Example, 265/50R14 84V means... 265= 265mm wide 50= sidewall profile as a percentage of width R= Radial 14= rim size (14") 84= load rating V= speed rating What I am not sure of is if/how this applies to truck tyres... HH

Tyre Codes
A quick search has yielded this page with code break-downs, similar to car tyres.
So Rick, what was the code on your tyres & how did you come to work out they were rag?? I ask because I do not want to sell something that it's not... HH

See what happens when you try to emulate SALESMAN BOB. You get into all sorts of trouble. Salesman Howard just doesn't sound right. I think you should retyre from this game. Salesman Bob

Trying for a sensible question
Howard your description seems a little vague on just how many tyres are up for auction.

Tyre Sizes
OK all I have spoken to my tyre man.
12.00x20 = 12" wide, 20" rim, rag construction 12.00R20 = 12" wide, 20" rim, Radial construction All truck tyres are uniform aspect ratio unless otherwise stated Speed rating will be specified elsewhere.

Are the tyres in Roadworthy Condition? What percentage of tread left do you think, and finally do they all have the same amount of wear? Thanks Rich

Condition of tyres
G'Day Rich,
Mate I am unable to say what % of tread is remaining as I do not have a new one to compare them with. I have selected 4 tyres with what I would consider roadworthy tread. I have a couple of others that have the same tread depth but are damaged from rocky work, so I will not sell them... I would estimate tread depth at the inside (shallowest) part of scollop to be 8mm.
