hulltrialser Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 It wont fit as your rim is 20" and its a tyre for a 19" rim even though it says 20"-2.5 on the tyreBen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard somewhere that you can buy a 20" ronnie, which I think is standard on a t-bird, am I correct?Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Elding Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 I heard somewhere that you can buy a 20" ronnie, which I think is standard on a t-bird, am I correct?Sam No, t-birds come with 19'' ronnies. Atleast the 05s do. trust me i owned one for all of 4 months, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_PRO Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 Use some WD40 and some brute force, the rear tyres are a pain to get off and on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 Ok. The 03 T-Birds have the 20" rear wheel. The 04's and 05's (I think 04's...) Have 19". The Try-All tyre says 2.0 X 2.5 on it, because the diameter of the wheel, with the tyre on, will still be 20". Something like that anyway. Mod tyres can be hard to get on sometimes, just get some metal tyre levers, some muscle , and a 2nd person to help. Or, sell them and buy some Crawlers My rear one went on easily on my Ronnie (Last part was a joke) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
