Trying to find a tyre.

[Bemo]

Does anybody know where I can find a wheel or tyre like this, local tyre service seems to think that they haven't made them for about 10 years.

Change the complete set of wheels and tyres for a modern alternative. That is if its for a cattle trailer like an Ifor Williams.

They are on a really old flatbed tipper, not sure what make. I don't want to Change all of them as I don't think the trailer would be worth much more.

Not cheap though

Scrap it and buy a good used flatbed, about 30 years younger. A new one won't cost that much more than a set of four tyres at that price.

Have a look on Ebay under 'Trailer tyres 225x75 R10' a seller in Scotland has 8 for sale

Sure somethig could be made to fit!!! Took these off an old trailer/cart going to scrap today. Easily early fiftees conversion as that is how Dad remembers the trailer!!! Surprisingly everything was corroded and the tyres were rotten but the wheelnuts and hubcap opened without any bother!!!

find a tyre and wheel you fancy, take accurate measurements, send to somebody with a cnc cutter and get the centres cut ready to weld into the rims.
take the tyres off before welding, get it done for not much more than beer money.
needs to be the right thickness to allow the wheelnuts to be done up tight properly.
those 2 piece rims are considerably thicker than useuall, and the tight sods sometimes dont cut enough tread on the studs

Two years on I imagine somethings been done or it's been scrapped.

Never mind, it's always of interest to other people with the same problem!
