35" tyres from MAXXIS is a reasonable and rather cheaper option at this stage, I would think.

Yes, I do know of a workshop in Pretoria that could do a coiler FC for you.[/quote]

Hi JPC,

I found a supplier for 1100/16, serious tractor style front tyres. as well as 9.00x16's I'm waiting for a quote from them.
Lets see. The problem with the Maxxis is they are too wide, this I'm sure is going to affect steering.

www.tubestone.co.za is the website.

Here is a link to another possibility http://www.errolstyres.co.za/tyre/fires ... mtyre/6798

Peace

What make and model are the tyres fitted on the 1Ton CXG181G, on the pic on the top left corner of this website?

Are they still available? Where?

They are Avons, and have not been available for about 35 years or more!

Though stamped '9.00 X 16', XCLs 255/100 are illegal here in France on a one-ton (I failed the MOT because of them) and, anyway, rub on the edge of the wing, so I sold mine for a song (they were less than 5,000 km !) and changed for 255/85 ones which are very close as you say. I assume XCLs would fit a FC without problem.

Here in France there is a dealer who offers true 9.00 X 16 Michelins, both new and slightly used - though 'new' are actually NOS (5 to 7 years old) which is not usually recommended; They are not cheap, but if someone wants the link to the website...

I've just checked. ZAR5694 + 14%VAT each. That's GBP340 + 14%. F' me sideways, near as makes no difference, GBP400 a corner, GBP2000 for the set?! Christ on a bike...
