Tires ?

Post by Saberr »

Been looking for some new tires 7.50x16 for my m38a1. I've done a bit of research, but everything i find is old. Yes, i tried the search first before posting this and found 0 results for Tires. Staying away from NDT/NDCC, too unsafe for my taste. Also anyone know what the metric conversion would be ? Could only track to 750/r16 ? I was wondering what everyone is using now days ?

Ever consider 225 85 r16. I have 215 85 r16 Cooper STs on my M38 and they are 30in in dia.

I realy do like those traxions. That's what i was looking more so for. Also great to have the metric numbers, using on road mainly, so looking more for a safer/road tire.
