Default I need Bias Ply mud tires....

These are the biggest I have found, they are the Power King 900-16 NT-50's......I need to find someone that sells a 1200-15, 1200-16, or 1200-16.5 mud tires, I do not want radials.....

Here are the Power King NT-50's
TBC Corporation - Private Brands (Multi-Mile, Cordovan, Sigma, Vanderbilt)

They are going on my 73 J4000 I am getting ready to restore, dad is starting the tear down tomorrow, I am trying to keep it as old looking as possible, hence the bias plys.....

I found Specialty Tires of America last night......I am going with the Trailbreakers in either 1200R15 or 35x14.50R15.......I will mount the 1200's on 10 inch wide factory style steel wheels or the 14.50's on 12 inch wide factory style steel wheels.......I got a guy that will build me the rims for about 100 a piece, just get the rim shells and weld in the factory centers......It depends on how much lift I go with and how they will fit......I plan on around 4-6 inches of lift......

This truck will never see mud, show only.......I am keeping it old school, so the old bias directional tires are the only thing that will look right......

Swampers look good on anything...they even make an old Dodge Power Wagon look better.
