I know that Dave Gordon used 10 ply 7.50x10 made for a 5.5" wide rim on his mortar, discussions have been made about using on the 6 pounder.

I have a set of the mule tires here, but they are obviously too small for the 6 pdr. I have also used the forklift tires, and can't say I am happy with the look of them either. I picked up a bunch of the tires from the M1A1 bomb cart that seem much closer to the proper size. They are a 9.00-10 rib tire made by dynatrac.

I guess a set is not the right term....a pair. I would have to look to see if they are STA or Coker.

Bear in mind the legal towing limits for unbraked trailers in the UK.

Tyres for 6 Pounder
Hi Richard
These size tyres are as rare as Rocking Horse s*** - at least in good useable condition. Most end up with 7.50's being used. I do have a few 8.25's but they are not in my view good enough for towing on public roads. They might be ok if you intend only towing in an arena setting or for a static gun. I can get some photos of them but if interested probably best to view. I am just outside Swindon Wiltshire. Rob |

tyres
Thank you for your responses i am in tending to tow it first behind my Loyd Carrier and secondly behind my half ton Dodge WC21 so it would be on public road. I looked at the link that was given for the 7.50 x 10 i like the tread as well i have seen them on web site company called Big Tyre used them on an old Scammell look good what do you think
