Airplane tire use a different bead setup due to the 2 piece wheel that bolts them to gether, have you ever seen one, gensco and the other surplus tire guys buy them from military surplus dealers for pennies, then they take them to shop where the inner bead is removed to make room for the tube used with a one piece wheel, i am not going to use this to kill myself or any other person, it is done and it is the truth. I can buy the tire with the extra bead attached and make it fit the ag type wheel instead of the airplane wheel. Those tires gensco sell are all done the same way, go by there and look, it is not a secret, i am going to try ti convert the bomber tire to a small 28 inch wheel run on a jd 1010 tractor, the bomber tire will be recapped with a tracor tread to go thru the cactus and not stop. Not kidding one bit, will show you the old tire i just ruined other day, lots of people never see this stuff and go nuts without understanding the real difference between how wheels are made, hoew you can get blanks, weld up your own centers, custom recapp, i am not going to show somebody something to kill innocent others or themselves with, this is a very small niche of airplane/converters that is left down here still. The altertnative is to buy the steel belted loggers and bigger tractors, those tires are about $2000 each and you need to work every day just to pay for the set up. I just like the cheap conversion, the wheel i am working on now is a 28 inch with a 8 bolt center. I will blow the center out with the plasma cutter and replace it witha 9 bolt hole pattern that i removed from a wheel with a bad hit on bead from stump. I donot consider this dangerous, it has been done since hotrodding began, jsut lawyers have scared everybody from experimenting, i am 47 now and i can tell you that i want to live forever, especially if it is with some custom tires/wheels. I will post some pictures to show you what the bead on a airpalne tire looks like very soon. Thanks for your consern, i understand it is your duty to speak out and you should until you are convinced otherwise, What kind of country do you 4x4 in?
