1986 Tecate front wheel delema

[Hoosier_Daddy]

OK, I have now realized that it is impossible to find a tire to fit the stock rim (11in) of the 86 T3 unless it looks like a tractor tire. I don't want a tractor tire. i'd like to have a tread pattern that looks like a normal stock high performance 3 wheeler tire.

I thought I remember seeing someone say there are other rims (Honda 250R, 200X?) that are 10 inch that have the same center offset that will bolt on to the front of the 86 T3 hub.

At least then i could get a tire that is a little taller and slightly skinnier but not to skinny.

Unless someone can direct me to find a more stock looking 23/9/11 that will fit the stock rim.

Any advice is welcome on this matter.

I ordered before 1 1/2 year a new 23/9/11 dunlop tire from usa for only 50usd
I will try to find the link from the shop ( I took it from a quad magazine )

Don't tell me that you can't find them anymore:cry:

why not put a honda 85-86 250r/350x rim or 86/87 200x rim on. The bolt pattern is the same. Then you can get the dunlap that was stock in 85(great tire). You can get a 10", I don't know much about the tecate brake caliper and hub, but a decent deal of grinding has to be done.

It says it's no longer available.

We just bought 2 of them through Tucker Rockey at the dealership. One for a 86R and one for a 86 Tecate.

Saw a new pull-off '86 wheel/tire combo in the classifieds a few days ago.

Here is your answer...Don't let the 8 fool you, it fits like a glove on the stock T3 rim...

What size is that? I can't find the size anywhere on that page. (is it 23.5/8/11?)
