Well the amount of time people have been running on such tyres without any problems with blowouts etc would suggest they are completely safe. at the end of the day a Bay weighs alot less than some large cars and they don't run on commercial tyres...

I had the last deluxe for about six months, i reularly sprayed WD40 everywhere i could and had a number of atemps with hammers, levers, blocks of wood and two people and still it wouldn't open. maybe this was a particularly 'stuck' example but the access to the moving parts is so limited and you never want to over force the winder handle...

slammedresto ive got 215/45/17s on mine, if they can take 2 ton of merc doing over a ton ill risk them on the bus!

monkeyspinner, whats the odd vacumn thang on the carb? cali smog equipment?

 

[Clem]

Another right result there, Tim. 8)

Those that suggest modren car tyres arent upto the job of hauling a camper around are the ones who wouldnt lower or run different wheels to begin with Its outdated nonsense.

Probably :lol:

 

[Monkeyspinner Tim]

It's arrived!

this is one sweet bus, all original paint, only rust at the bottom of the front screen and a little bit in the front floors. interior is complete bar the middle seat and the headlining is almost perfect... runs, drives, brakes work. i reckon it needs a bit of this treatment...

[Scampi]
