Yes it will go on the road mainly to get mulch and dirt for around the house. I have a shop that will mount tires no problem as the work on farm eq all the time. Finding a common size close to the original is my problem

Height isn't to important but kind off like to stay close to the original 9.00 height as they sit at a good height behind my truck.

Just got a m101 that I plan to use around the house, it still has the non directional tires on it and they have many dry rot cracks. My question is what's the cheapest most common tire size for replacment? I've used a tire size calculator but from what I've looked up it doesn't come up with...

I was was told by my tire shop if keep the ply to 8 and up then there isn't any problem with doing modern tires. any other sizes to consider that won't be a drastic height change?

Ok thanks everyone. I'm going to try and find some used ones in a close size, cause most tires dry rot way before I run the tread down on my trailers.

Yes I did a search but found 5 different awnsers. I want to replace the NDT with something more common and like to stay around the same size since it sits nice behind the tow vehicle. What's the close to the 9.00 16's, as I've read everything from 285/85 to a 235/85/16?

I'm originally from warrenton area been in Orange about 7yrs.

I got some black from lowes and it doesn't cover bad, I've thinned them down about 5% to spray in a HVLP. Coverage is very nice a big difference in using latex compared to a automotive type paint but I do love the no harsh smell.

Well as I expected lowes is no help and a bunch of lazy idiots. I ended up going to HD and getting them to look it up, took the guy a whole 2 min to find the colors. When I run out I'm going back to lowes and get the colors matched in something they carry due to them being so close to me.

I know this is an old thread but just wandering anybody new out there,I'm in Orange and just joined.

HaHa, the reason I'm interested in these trucks now is cause I saw your trucks sitting behind your shop all fall being worked on its a small world. Very nice setup you have and hope to get one in the near future, message me if you ever need another hand I'd love to learn more about these.

Thanks SCSG never new the number had an actual meaning just thought It was random thing. I'm interested to see what lowes has to say.

I'll post my results, thanks for the quick replys.

Yea I read those that's what I got my info from but it's all behr numbers and didn't know if lowes could cross that over or if someone already had the number handy.

So for the 383 green do I just tell them the FSB#?
