Source for tire tubes and flaps?

Am picking up my new rubber for the -725 this weekend, some military surplus 11.00x16 XL radials meant for the LAV. They are 38" tires, as opposed to the original 9.00x16s which were 34" high.

Question is, since I am still using the M715 series rims on this truck, I will need tubes and flaps, just as if I were using standard size 9.00x16s. But what size tubes will I need? Can anyone recommend a source of proper size tubes and flaps for my application, in the correct size I need? I believe I will need radial tubes despite the fact I am using the original rims, correct me if I'm wrong....

Hey Maddawg.. I use International Tube & Tire out of Texas. I am looking for there website and will post it when find it.. Tomany things in my favorite section. They had the best price at the time and knew just what tire I was talking about when I called them. 1100/16 XL radials on my CDN M37
You will need radial tubes and flaps. Tubes must have the metal valve stem with the 90 degree bend..

Here you go.. At the time they had the best price even with shipping..

Thanks, CS. Will give them a call tomorrow.

just showing off a little

Humor me..Love them tires!!

Maddawg, here they are on a 715. You will be happy with them.

CS and Armada: yeah I think they will work out well, they definitely look cool! I thought for the price they were worth it ($550 for 4 like new tires, and 1 fair cond. spare), and they had more contact with the road surface, hence, better performance on wet roads, much more so than the stock NDTs. Thanks for the pics guys!

715?

Ha ha. No, I bought these with a portion of my tax return, back when I had a little money floating around. No more use of the credit card for me...

Mike,
Call ITT. Their website doesn't always process orders that good. Ask for Rusty. Just tell him you are putting Michelins on a M715 and he will know exactly what tubes you need. He asked me to call him the next time I have my M715 in Houston so he can meet me and see exactly what these trucks are he keeps selling tubes for.

RE: Re: Tires

You got the phone number for ITT? I checked on their website but I can't seem to find it....

RE: Re: Tires

Never mind - I got ahold of Rusty, and I have 5 tubes and 5 flaps incoming. Very helpful guy, Rusty is. Thanks to all!
