Flat Tyre - Feeling deflated!

Ok so got home from our weekend away and noticed our tyre looked a little flat and by the time we had unloaded it was flat. Now sat on the drive clamped up and needs replaced. Our tyre size is 145 R10 68s and our Puck is early 80's perhaps an 84.
Have tried Etyres and a few others inc Kwik Fit and been advised they do not stock or fit this size. Any suggestions?

Thanks - Tony H.

Im no expert.(opening line these days).
But have a look at the Maxxis tyres. Is this what you want on the following page?
https://www.maxxis.co.uk/catalog/tyre-23...ilermaxx-cr-966
I fitted Maxxis to my 420, ok differant size but they were ordered in at a local dealer down here in Poole the next day.
Replace both and the spare if you can.
Hope that helps. Rgds Mike.

Sorted now, a local garage can get the tyres in, fit, balance & replace valves @ £48.00 so better than any other option. (Apparently newer tyre machines won't take an R10 wheel so got lucky here.) Thanks for all the help, here and on FB.

I have the same problem with an old MG, most tyre places cannot balance spoke wheels, one of the young tyre specialist asked me why I wanted an inner tube in a tubeless tyre, he was a bit stumped when i asked him how he was going to plug 72 holes in the rim from the spokes...

I found an old school garage that could undertake the work.
