intertubes inside series wheels??

[1961 109 WAGON]

while pulling a car of the ditch the other day in the snow, all the trucks weight was on the front right tire. the tire had some dry rotting being 20 years old, now when i spray soapy water on the side wall is bubbles alittle. would you put a tube in it?? i like the tires and cant find them anymore. these are co-op tires from southern states..

the problem that you have is the stress of dismounting and then re mounting the tyres could make the cracks worsen but i guess you have nothing to loose, those tyres are sold by different mfg's under different names , mine are called gateway buckshot mudders......

[rovertek]

Post a picture of them-sometimes older tire molds are swapped from one maker to the next, you never know what brand might be making them and where.

That's a neat tire. The General tires that I want back though, are the Versa-Trac. I loved them.

those tires are neat looking. after a three hour hunt on the internet, i found (8) 7.50x16 co-op grip spurs about 80 miles from here, they will run me $125 each. hell yeah!.

Where did you find them on the internet? Will you post a link?

[1961 109 WAGON]

i did a google search for co-op grip spur tires. it led me to kelly springfield tires. i found the tire dealer locally that happens to have two sets, but wont ship. i gota drive there saturday to pick them up.if they have more, ill give you the phone number or if they can get anymore of them.

the last time I checked, about 2 years ago, the Southers States store in Gloucester, VA said they could still get the Coop Grip Spurs. 750x16 and 900x16
