I've found a source for 8.00 16.5 series E tires.
Retail is $119.80 plus shipping. Shipping's $28 to menlo park.

I'm ordering 3 of them today, if I'm happy with that in a week or two I might go ahead and order 4 more.
I'm looking for others who would like to have new tires for their clipper - we could probably negotiate a price break on a large order.
If you're interested, reply on this thread, let me know how many you're interested in

Those look tough, but don't think I would like the bias ply. Will just stick with mine radials purchased fron discount tire.
