[rebel-builders] Source for 8.00 x 6.00 tire tubes
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 5:29 pm
The alternative to the 90 deg valve (which is getting more difficult to
find) and not commonly used, is to drill or have machined a new location for
a straight valve stem. The process is not difficult and will end the
headache of finding a 90 deg tube.
If anyone would like info on how to do so, just email me. This process is
good for the newer MAM aluminum wheels that currently have 90* output hole
location in the wheel spacer.

I was looking to buy a spare tube with 90 deg valve stem for the Carlisle
8.00 x 6.00 tires and wanted to find a local source. The archives indicated
Wayne had previously posted his source was Goodyear Tire, so I contacted my
local Goodyear Tire dealer and had two spare tubes the following day. The
dealer said the tubes were actually Carlisle tubes, not Goodyear. Price was
$11.65 USD each. They are marked 'Nanco 8.00 x 6/7 Made in Indonesia' and
have the 90 deg bent valve stem.
Just FYI in the event anyone needs a source.
