If by flat you mean the paint type then the answer is no, unfortunately. The closest I was able to find apart from straight up steel is the Kenda 215/60-8 Bias Trailer Tire with 8" White Wheel # AM3H310 which has a semi-gloss coat.

Your best bet honestly is to use a steel wheel # AM3H320 and have it painted flat.

If you're referring to a run flat tire then we definitely don't have those. Your best bet would be to get in touch with a local tire shop and see what they've got.

Answer 5

The 18.5x8.5-8 is actually an old tire size that is not used much anymore. The closest metric size to your existing tire would be 215/60-8. Your wheel most likely has a 5-on 4-1/4 inch bolt pattern (see link), you will want to make sure that the bolt…

Answer 6

The difference between an load range C and load range D tire in the same size is the capacity and psi rating. The two tires will still have the same dimensions and fit on the same wheel. The D rated tire has a higher capacity. For a ST175/80D13 like…
