Shinko HD240 tires

Will these work?

H rated tube type, 4 ply nylon carcass

I found one site that said they would work on 3" rims..

it looks like loads of places are selling them for $75 - $80.

Would be great if they did. Correct metric size for 3.25x16 would be MM 90 or 100/90
MT 90 would be equivalent to 130/90 or 5.00 US....probably too wide for the rims.
Don't recall the orig rim width, but I think it is 2.15" ....maybe??

ahhh.. I see... this chart clarifies it for me.

If you want whitewalls, there are only 2 choices out there as far as I know.....Coker Firestone replicas or Port a Walls....at least in the US.
I seem to recal finding one manufacturer, maybe Continental?, that showed them overseas somewhere, but I haven't been able to find it again.

So, to simplify this a bit, what size tires AND rims (front and rear) am I looking for for a 1964 CA77,and who sells them?

The correct tires are 3.25-16 front and rear. Not sure the rim size, maybe 2.15

Front were rib tread and rear were block tread.

Chen Shein did make some blackwalls in that size, not sure they are still available.

Metzler lists a "Block C" but appears to be available overseas only.

Coker sells the wide whites in the correct size.

Nobody as far as I know has the correct size and tread pattern.

Some run 3.50 or 100/90-16

Good luck, let us know if you find any other sources.

Will ANY 3.25x16 rim do?? I have heard spoke-hole angle is a concern when trying to replace the rims, especially if you want to re-use the central hubs on a CA77...any input on this??

Any info in rims, what makes, and where to buy them would be appreciated...my original rims are WAYYY rusted, even beyond powdercoating(although that might be a cool experiment...), and I just want to replace them, hopefully WITHOUT having to talk financing...
