Dunlop 8.00-5 tyres

Hello Mark,

I need them for a concrete screed rail, we design and build bridges and have made a motorised levelling screed which is set up on two rails over the full length of the bridge. These wheels have served us well and with the groove up the middle of wheel run a good line without fear of coming off rail.

Pretty slick bit of gear.

We have had the current wheels on for some time now but getting to the end of their of life.

I would need a set for good, not loan but thank you all the same.

I will keep searching.

Hello All,

I am trying to get my hands on a couple of Dunlop 8.00-5 tyres which were originally of a Beaufort Bomber. I am based in Melbourne Australia.

Can anyone assist?

Can I ask what you need them for? borrow or buy?

I may have a pair but they are not really surplus.

Regards

Mark Pilkington

Must be popular…Spitty ones on haycarts up here..

Maybe its because they kept falling out of the sky around there, hence the nickname “Gippsland Hailstones” :rolleyes:

There are still a few floating around in Gippsland, but again, attached to machinery.

I see lots of ex air force wheels up around the riverina. A lot of stuff was scrapped at Toc. I’ve seen wheels like off Beuforts on the sides of all sort of agricultural machinery. Anywhere from deniliquin up the Griffith.
