Does anyone know how many gallons of fluid is in a 2501 r4 15x19.5 tire?I am replacing them with R1 and going to reuse what fluid I can.I have a 55 gallon drum and wondering if it will hold fluid from both tires.

Click to expand...

29 gallons per tire at 75% = the old R4

your new tires 11.2x24 at 75% = 24 gallons
