In Reply to: 9.00X16, 17.5 or 19.5 tires anyone? posted by Chris Lube Lublin on Monday, August 08, 2005 at 1:41AM :

real problem with radial tires 6 years from
date of manufacturer (week/year code on side
wall) is about the max - check michelin
warranty
old bias ply ie 9.00x16 NDTs do not appear
to have the problem one of my spares is a 1952 goodyear and aside from some weather
checks does not appear to be in failing health
the 9.00x16 goodyears are a BIG tire wider
(when mounted) than the BFG (my other spare)
or the Firestones on the ground
as Doc Dave said - the Freight will be high
with the wheels
