11 x 18 Gamma Goat tires

[M215]

Hello,
I'm in need of 6-7 Gamma Goat tires for a CCKW project (running DUKW rims), any known sources? Reading back through the old posts did not turn up much info. Looked like Jack Tomlin had some years ago, but that is not an option anymore.
Thank you, Karl

Just as a FYI in case you aren't already aware, while they are the same size, Gama Goat tires are only 6 ply, where I think original WW2 DUKW tires were heavier...

Yeah, they were 10 ply iirc.

Coker tire sells them new.

any place that has the rims as well now or are they all taken up?

Chicago DUKW is the only place I can think that may have the wheels. They are getting hard to come by. I believe I have a set of the wheel spacers you will need to run those rims.

I got 7 tires from Chicago DUKW. While they were NOS only 4 of them were useable and they have some sidewall checking. I put them on the rear axles and ordered 2 new tires from Coker for the front.
