Never had many problems till this situation on fixing a tube so heres the jist :
Tires are new 15.5 - 38's bought one new tube from the guy I bought the tires ....new tube a foreign one...for bias tires....tube was marked as fitting 13.9 to 15.5 - 38....
Now I had a flat and have had repeated problems with patches not holding/ripping ect.....never had a problem before patching a tube....
I compared the old tube to the new....old tube ( 18" across deflated tube) is 6" in circumference greater than the new tube ( 15" across deflated tube) ....
Do I have the wrong size tube even though it was marked for that tire?? or just a bad tube??
Thanks
Dave
