Masked Marauder Posted July 16, 2006 Report Posted July 16, 2006 What size and profile are they tyres? Quote
banjo Posted July 16, 2006 Author Report Posted July 16, 2006 The tyres measure 16'' from top to bottom.As for the profile,??Thanks MM. Quote
Masked Marauder Posted July 16, 2006 Report Posted July 16, 2006 The tyres should be marked with a size, e.g. 165.70.13 Quote
familyman Posted July 16, 2006 Report Posted July 16, 2006 :lol: should be some information about tyre pressures on sidewall of tyre, if not ask at local tyre dealers ,they might be able to help Quote
Masked Marauder Posted July 16, 2006 Report Posted July 16, 2006 Usually the only pressure details on the the tyre is the maximum. Quote
Guest pablo Posted July 16, 2006 Report Posted July 16, 2006 The tyres in the picture you posted are mounted onto 8" rims and should be inflated to around 35PSi when the trailer (which probably has a maximum load of 300kg) is fully loaded. Hope this is of help.. Regards Quote
