Looks good Kevin. Has any one tried the 21x12-8 with 6ply rating from Matco Mfg. At $75 seems more in my range than $500 from Dresser. Understanding you get what you pay for.

Are the 21x12x800 (I will bet a dollar) the same exact Nanco, Nanking, etc. ATV tires that everyone has been using for years?
Received my 21" from Matco today. The name on them is Duro. They have a 6 ply rating where as my Nanco have 2 ply rating. Hope to get them on soon and will report back.
Do you have a link for the Matco 21x12x8 tires? I looked on the Matco site but didn't see anything.
Thanks

Just an observation - those tires seem to have a very low load rating, @ 410 lbs. Is this typical for this type tire?
I think a typical 6.00-6, 6-ply rated aircraft tire, for instance, usually has a load rating somewhere around 1700 lbs. per tire.

Thanks for the link. I guess I must have looked right at them.
I wish I would have found these back in October. I ended up with the Nancos again. The 2 ply with the 365# rating makes me a little nervous.
Anyone know the weight of the Matcos?
Per tire weight is 8.5 lbs.
Have a buddy of mine with these on a Rans S7. Just a handful of flights off turf runway but so far happy.
One thing he did notice was the tire has spun on the wheel slightly. He is running 15psi.
