Have six new 7.00-16NDCC denmans, finally got the new tubes as they were on backorder for 8 weeks. They have 5.50/6.00-16 printed on the side of them. I called the seller and they said these were the proper tubes, does'nt sound right to me.I checked the ORD 9 and it calls for 519282 (7.00-16) I know they are just heavy balloons and will fill the inside but are they going to last.

Not correct. Tell him to hire a tutor and start with 1 & 1 = 2. If he sticks you with them make sure the whole world finds out who he is.

The extra stretch will result in a thinner tube skin and accelerated wear. They also have a tendency to force the early failure of the valve stem.
