    Innertube size

    Hey,
    I bought some 5.00 x 16 Cokers for my restoration, but I'll be damned if I can find 5.00 x 16 rubber side valve tubes.. The "regular" vendors (and what I ordered) carry 5.10 x 16 ... any issues running 5.10 tubes with 5.00 tires?

    thanks..

    Not a problem

    That's what we all do...It'll be fine, it's such a small diameter difference. Under size tube in my thought would be wrong. Merlin in Pa.

      Didn't tubes used to be marked 5.00\5.10X16? Also Kick Start MC parts lists tubes as 5.00X16, note says to call for specifics.

        Thanks guys

        I thought the same thing...but then I thought I read somewhere one time that you should not use 5.10 tubes on 5.00 tires...

        appreciate the quick responses!!

        Thanks again
