There are a few dealers listed in Hemmings Motor News. Cooper Tire still has that size available just check their web site. Coker sells a lot of these as well. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 44 Member | | Member Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 44 | Yes where to buy, Thanks oldblu for the reply I will check them out, nice rides too

A lot of the older farm trucks ran the 6.00X16 tube-type bias ply tires, and Co-Op will have them listed in their catalog, even if they don't have them in stock. That's also a popular size for off-road farm equipment, but I'd be a little leery of using an implement-type tire for a highway application. Highway tires need a DOT certification number, and I'm not sure if implement tires have them. Unless it's got "DOT" followed by a number molded into the sidewall somewhere, it's not supposed to be used on public roads.
