Wes, I never found much on the net either. I should note that the tires I bought are 10 ply.... I will ask my tire dealer if they are available in 9.00x16 on Monday. |

Here's some pics with the Bluestar 7.50 x 16 tire mounted up on factory M38A1 NEKAF rims. My tire dealer ended up installing them tubeless. Once he removed the old NATO tread tires, he couldn't beli ... |
