19 inch inner tubes
 

I saw these on amazon and was wondering if this size would work on 1931 models A 19 inch wheels.

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

where are they made? For that price try them out I would say they would work?!

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

I just replaced the tires on a 28 pickup and the old tubes had numbers stamped on them. They are really thick rubber and universal brand so I googled the number and it showed they are for a tractor. They have been on for many years so back on they went.

If price is what your discriminator is, the Model A vendors have 19” tubes in the neighborhood of $20-$25. Not a huge amount greater than those you show, known high quality, and you support our small vendors instead of the big river store.

But those are 2 for $34.00!!!

Be very careful when purchasing " inexpensive" innertubes I have purchased such tubes before for my other hobby ( Motorcycles ) Some appear to be very robust, however most are made in China and as crazy as it sounds i have had tubes just blow sitting in the garage after being mounted for days, with zero miles on them.. I am a strong believer in using a quality innertube for safety.. not to mention if your mounting your own tires it just plane sucks to have to break down a tire to replace a " new" innertube because it broke at the seam or fold mark...

I agree with Sport King. As an ex-motorcycle mechanic and off road rider I know a cheap tube can ruin your day real fast. I see the tubes in question are “Hecho en Chine”.

That was kinda where I was going in Post #4… Tubes are not where I would look to save a couple of bucks. One failure and all your savings will look like money ill saved. I’ve been using Snyder’s radial 19” tubes for quite a while without any issues. They appear to be well made with consistent and thick joints at the valve stems.

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

Still NO answer if they would fit ,not quality!

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

For whatever reason Chinese rubber is not any good. It cracks and goes bad quickly.

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

I guess that would depend on valve stem location. I can not tell from the picture or description if it is centered or off-set or even the correct size.

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

I needed a tube for my AA and I asked the two places that had them where they were made, one said China the other said India what a choice.:eek:

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

Unfortunately I bought my tubes from Snyder's along with American Classic radial tires. Two flats within the first 600 miles or so. I promptly purchased Coker's Hartford tubes and through Snyder's tubes in the garbage And yes I checked for the stickers on the inside of the carcasses prior to mounting. Just the weight alone of the Hartford is impressive. 14 months and no flats and maybe lose 2 lbs of air in a month or more.

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

They would cost in he vicinity of $70+ here. I had to buy one a short time ago.

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

I have ordered them and will report back once I try them out, plus free shipping!

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

Their website says not for highway use, but that is probably just to cover their liability.

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

Update: the tubes didn’t fit. The valve stem were to fat and would not fit through the hole in the rim.

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

Sell them at a small profit on eBay. Or you could use the metal valve stems that are in two pieces and install in the tubes through a hole that you cut. See https://www.snydersantiqueauto.com/p...3886&cat=41752

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

Replace stems with metal ones.

Re: 19 inch inner tubes
 

Or just admit to yourself that you took a gamble, lost and write it off to a lesson painfully learned. Do it right next time and buy from a known quality vendor.

You might be able to return at least some of them to Amazon.
