550 x 19

Two weeks ago I install 550 x 19 tires from Coker free shipping . She rides as smooth as silk . My rims were 4.5 wide and seated well. Running 29-30 lbs. those old tires were recaps and as hard as a rock, side wall cracks .

On my to do list is find someone to spin and balance. Money well spent.
 
PO installed juice brake so clearance is good

Did you put GoodYears on I hope? Wayne
 
No such thing as free shipping! It is in the price somewhere you just can't see it in writing, Bottom line is the tires are marked up the amount of the shipping costs. It makes us feel good to think if was free but none of us are fools. Wayne
 
Ordered thur Summit free shipping ,

No radial tire here.

No wheel adapter , wheels mount fire to brake drums .
 
Some of the guys in our club use a wheel hub from Trailer Wheel and frame part
# WQUA 84545 and then anyone with a spin balancer can do it.


sorry wrong part number should be 84555

Recently bought a set of 550x19 from Summitt, $100 per tire less than Coker listed on its website and free shipping. They sent 6 ply Excelsior. Looks like bias ply on the inside. I guess the 6 ply will be good for potholes.

balancing beads Never heard about this before , so last night I watch couple you tubes and I'm still in the dark... I'm fascinated about the concept ....
Maybe do a search here tomorrow ...

Just putting new rubber tire on my roadster made a world of difference . My old tire had 59 stamped on it and we're recapped. The tire were as hard as a rock....
