Hey Everyone

I am currently ready for a new set of tires for my Fleet 16B Finch.
The tires are size 8.50 x 10.
Anyone out there know of a good source or lead on a set ?
If so please contact me .

Keep'em Flying

Man – we must have hit send at exactly the same time . . .

Thanks for the quick response.
I've tried Desser and they say they don't have that size in the vintage tires.
Only in the square shoulder modern tires.
It's too bad because their Aero classics line is exactly what I need.
Thanks again and please keep an eye out for me

I'll go look in the "tire room" here in Midland. Maybe we'll have what you're looking for. I'll let you know a little later.

We have only one 8.50x10 tire. It has a goofy lookin' tread pattern too. If you're interested in it, just PM me and we'll work out getting it to you.

I have sold that size to Ag sprayers. Check with them. Maybe Landrum Flotation Tire in Homestead Fl.
