Subject:[NVC] help translate my trailer's tire size
From:Mike Elliott
Date:Wed, 7 Jun 2006 20:15:17 -0700

I've decided to dust off, clean, scrub, patch, and otherwise refurbish a
cute little teardrop-shaped fiberglass covered trailer from the 60's
that I use for occasional camping gear hauling. The tires are in poor
shape and I could use some help locating inexpensive replacements. It's
a light little thing and I don't need much in terms of load rating here,
just basic tires. They are four-ply, and the size indicated on them is
"5.90S13" which I gather is some vintage sizing nomenclature.
