Tyre suppliers

[long tall texan]

Just wondering where everyone gets their tyres from. I'm looking for 15'x6.00-6 tyres but getting nowhere. Any help appreciated.

I believe most tyre shops are reluctant to sell you tires for an aircraft. But i believe they sell ribbed tyres for ride on mowers!

Try Bridgestone tyres, I have 6 ply and when I mentioned they were for and ultralight aircraft there was a lot of noise from

 

the workshop so he said that he couldn't hear me properly. Alan.

I got my last 2 ribbed 15x6.00-6 for the Drifter from *Easylift Group Pty Ltd*!

 

I don`t know if they have stores all over the country!

Give me a call happy to supply anyone with their needs.

 

Freight may be a problem to some places but if I can help happy to do so

 

Supply locals with 10plys etc for the jabirus etc so the rest can't be too much of an issue

 

Regards

Try Trelliborg Brand, I have found to be a very good tyre. The only tyre I have seen that is not branded, "not for highway use" > Available in SA from a company called Solid Service. And I guess interstate from companies part of the Trelliborg group which may have different names.

I have sourced 13.5X6 Deestone tyres from my local Bob Jane tyre shop, twenty at a time and with a dozen new tubes for about half what I would pay for twenty Trelleborgs, leave alone the additional tubes. The Deestone are slightly softer, but they last about 3/4 as long as the Trelleborgs, so we are coming out slightly ahead, in spite of changing tyres slightly more frequently.
