Hi there. Looking for a good replacement set of tires that you can buy new that would be a good suitable replacement for the original and very dry rotted Carlisle 4.00-6 block tread tires that came new on my 1971 MTD trailflite mini bike. If I'm correct, a new modern 4.00-6 tire is not the...

Here's the three 5 spoke mags that people get confused with: The one on the left is a Trailhorse mag also used on some others and looks like a mid 70s Z28 wheel. The center one is an Astro style wheel used on Ruttman and Barris bikes as well as some others. Looks like the rounded American...
