I'm using the 27.5x8.5's load rating was listed as D that year
so at this point I'd look at some other stuff. works better with a
little weight in the back.  The dig for traction quite nicely

Nope it's not as good as my old '71, but it's a lot better then when
I had the old "Jupiter's" on.  They had a good sidewall and it cornered
a bit crisper with them probably since they were shorter, but they were
more of an road tire then these so got a bit rough in terrain.

So I thought you were dumping your diesel???
