M101A1 Rims/Tires

I just bought a M101A1. It came with what looks like the original tires so I switched them out for a set of 245/75 16s. I think they should work well for a while. I'm going to eventually replace the axle so I can match the 6 lug rims on my jeep but I need a spare rim/tire until I can do that. Is there somewhere that sells them? I put up a wanted ad but no hits yet. Are there any surplus places where I could order a spare? If they're going to be expensive, I'll just speed up my axle replacement.

Here's the trailer the day I got it. I used some cheap magnetic lights but I rewired it and added LEDs to the original military housing. I'll try to get some pictures tonight with the new tires....they look pretty funny.

That's what I thought.. :(

I've seen a bunch of people switch the axle out...but I haven't heard what they did with the axle, rims and tires when they're done.

It seems like it's in pretty good shape. It pulls nice behind the truck but I got it for this:


I think it will sit level behind the jeep. I just picked up the trailer tonight after a friend put the tires on. The truck is a little more reliable so I left the jeep at home.

I'm planning on building a little camping rig out off it.....it will just take some time.
