Hello, listers



I got no replies to my original question, so let me try this again, more to the point:



Has anyone used tires smaller (diameter) than the standard 4.0 x 8.0? (CH601-HD/HDS)

If so, what size, and what modifications were necessary? 



Thanks in advance



Carlos

We would strongly endorse using the Michelin S83 motor scooter tires for

the 601HD (size 3.5 x 8.0).  They fit the Matco rims with no trouble.  Of

 course, use a tube with an angled valve stem.  We originally installed the

4.0 x 8.0

Hi Carlos,

  

 At the risk of reading your question too  carefully...you seem to ask specifically for diameter of tires.  The  standard trailer tires received for my HDS are 16 inches in diameter.  Now  with many, many landings on them the tread is wearing thin and I got the  Michelin S 83 tires that Bill Morelli suggested using many years ago.  I  asked Larry Mac for the diameter of his and he said 15 inches.   

  

 I bought some for replacement and can affirm the 15  inch diameter with the bonus of a much smarter look.  Sketching up cross  sections for new pants to go along.
