I tried to respond to a thread titled the same as this that was posted in 2012 but for some reason I am getting an error. Anyway, trying a new post.......?
Going to upgrade all 3 tires on my C16. All three that came with it when I bought it are different....different load ratings, plys, etc.
One of the tires is "5.70-8". I thought the "8" meant it was an 8" tire but when I put a tape measure across the rim to measure the diameter, it was 9".
So, can someone:
- Explain the number on the sidewall and how to tell what size I have.
- I wanted to go to larger tires/rims. Perhaps 10" if these are 9". I saw MacGyvers suggestion on etrailer and think I am gonna go that route but would listen to other suggestions.
In case it is important, the trailer is a Magic Tilt and I have Bearing Buddies on it.
Thanks,
Saluki
