Hi all, I'm wanting to know if there is a company that still makes a 1000-20 tire for my '59 Spartan 100 https://www.stovebolt.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/1291487/1959-spartan-100-winch-truck.html

It still has the original Budd wheels with the big 'snap ring' on them. I like the look of them along with the tall sidewall of the tire, makes the truck look more beefy than it already is grin
The only tire I've come across so far is the 1000-20 offered by Coker Tire, though its a whitewall.

If it comes down to it, I can run 22.5 rims and tires on the truck which isn't an issue. Actually had a friend give me 2 that he didn't need anymore https://photos.app.goo.gl/vpUQQRroNM7efqPw6

Here's a restored '58 Spartan 100 with Budd rims. This is the look I'd like to go for if I can. https://photos.app.goo.gl/MjWTvWxFw4bmPQsm7

If the cokers are white walls just turn them around. Just continue to do a search, should be out there somewhere.

Chicago Tire has them in there eBay Store. They sell them in package deals as well as one at a time, so scroll down through their web page store to find what you need.

Hy Possum, I believe the wheels your friend gave you are hub pilot wheels which won't fit your hubs correctly, you will have to find some 22.5" Budd wheels and swap the tires over.

I have, and I noticed that. Never bought a Chinese-made tire before so I don't know how trustworthy they are.

Hmm, sounds like a waste of money.

Didn't think of that! Though I'd like to test fit one just to make sure.

i also recommend the Samson tire brand,
they are made for working, i have a set of 4 on my one ton and hauled gravel until i was nearly bottomed out on the auxiliary leafs
the coker tires are for show only, they would fail if you tried to use them for actual work

I'll second that the modern hub piloted wheels are not a replacement for your stud piloted wheels.
Even if the bolt pattern is similar the wheel won't be supported to run true or carry the load as intended.

Wow!, I'd love to have a set of those 10.00x20, U.S. Royal gangster whitewalls, on my COE, but $1300ea., is a bit much.

Thanks guys, looks like I'll be on the hunt for some stud piloted wheels. Plus I still need to go by the tire shop and see if they'll work on these original Budds.
