    7.50 x 18 tires

    Trying to find what 7.50 x 18 tires fit. Looks like the M-5 bomb trailer used them. Anyone know of other vehicles that they would fit? I have 4 n.o.s. of them that I picked up. The beads don't look like they will fit on a regular rim.

    Updated pg #5; I now own a 1990 M923A2.

    My M813 arrived on mothers day 3 years ago. (not by choice on that particular day ). Texted her friends that I had lost my mind. She said that she would ride in it over her dead body. My son suggested that if she should pass away we could use the truck instead of a hearse. Bill
