I have a T160 which came with an 18 inch rear wheel and a fat Chinese tyre. I want to get it on TT100's Should I go back to the 19 wheel or keep the 18 inch not sure why this was installed. Not sure if I can get a TT100 for the rear in 18 inch X 4 Any advantages?? Many thanks Socelt

You should have no problems finding an 18" tire, the rear tires on the T120s and T140s were 18" rear and 18" front for the UK and 19" front for the US.
Here's one I found on the internet: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...8&s=automotive

A lot of people swap out the 19" rear for an 18" for better tire selection. My 74 T150 basket case came with out wheels so I opted to go with a 18" on the rear for that very reason.

Thanks for all the info guys looks like I will stick with the 18" rear I was just more concerned about effecting the gearing All the best socelt
