Hi all, what is everyone doing for stock 10 inch tyres to fit standard ten inch 850 style steel rims?

For 3.5” rims you will need to use 145 tyres. There seems to be a few to choose from at the moment:
Falken SN807
Yokohama Y350 GT Special
Aquajets
Blockley 145
Dunlop SP10
Dunlop SP175

Some are available locally, some from the UK, and some from Japan via eBay. I’d suggest you get some car tyres and not trailer or light truck tyres

There is the Nankang TR10 too but those are just another light truck tyre so best avoided.

The Falken ones have great cases, I have 2 on the boat trailer they're 15 years old, about 1/2 worn and no cracks anywhere.
