    Do you want a Duratrac 35 R15 size? Let's make it happen.

    I don't think I've made long posts in this thread. I want Trxus MT for my own use, but I'd also be happy with a Duratrac for my own use. Either would be good for me, if made in a size I want. Currently neither is made in a size I want. There are many other people who'd like to have a 35 tall...

    Lipstick on a Pig: The 10 Don'ts of Vehicle Modifications

    Agreed. Also, huge bumpers add a lot of weight at the end of the vehicle, which messes up handling on and off road, IMO. Plus the extra weight and wind drag hurt fuel economy and acceleration.

    There was a problem with the link to contact Goodyear. The link is fixed now. See link in OP.

    Do you want a Duratrac 35 R15 size? Let's make it happen.

    Hi. I'm CB3. I do NOT work for Goodyear. I'm a Jeep enthusiast who likes Duratrac tires, and I'd like to be able to buy a 35 X ? R15, but Goodyear doesn't make a 35 R15 size Duratrac. By 35 R15 I mean any of the following: 35 X 11 R15 35 X 11.5 R15 35 X 12 R15 35 X 12.5 R15 i.e. - any of...

    There is also Interco's online factory outlet store. They only list what they have in stock, and their prices might be good. I didn't check their prices because they didn't have the size I wanted. In addition to their "normal" tires, the Interco factory outlet store also sells blems, which are...

    That would be refreshing to deal with an online place that only shows what they have in stock. I have suffered considerable annoyances in the past with online places listing a tire brand, model, size for sale, often with the words "In Stock" and then when I try to buy it, they don't have it in...

    Sorry about putting 35x10.8R16E in the poll twice. Accidents happen. I think that JC Whitney has the best prices on Interco that I´ve seen, and possibly also 4 wheel parts, though I don´t remember for sure. I haven´t done much price shopping yet. So I´m not sure who has best prices.

    Toyo M-55

    My cousin has Toyo M55. He struggles in even mild mud, and struggles on snow, and has a terrible time on ice. My BFG AT drive circles around the M55 on those same conditions. Including mud, and I don't even consider BFG AT good for mud, but they're a bit better than M55 for mud. For snow and...

    To late now, but I wish I had included these R15 sizes in the poll: 33 X 11.2 R15C 34 X 11.2 R15C Those are a couple sizes I'd love to have. Anyone else want either of those sizes? Please post, if you do.

    Tires: Wide or Narrow?

    I've seen numerous occasions when narrow tires are much better on winter roads, and are (literally) driving around the guys with wide tires who are stuck or slid into a ditch. I see this every winter. I used to enjoy this every winter when I had 9.5" wide tires, but when I was off road on mud...

    Cooper ST's - 255/85/16

    I used to have Cooper ST in 285/75R16 and they were excellent for everything, except winter conditions. They were the snot slickest tires on snow and ice that I've ever owned. They were TERRIBLE on snow or ice, until I added extra sipes to the center treads. After that, they were pretty good...

    Tires: Wide or Narrow?

    I'm partial to radial tires that are medium width. 10.8 ideally. 10.5 is good too. I arrived at that conclusion after using 9.5, then 10, then 11.3, currently 10.5, and want to run some 10.8, though I could be happy with for 11.2 or 11.3 wide. Those widths being approximations of course, since...

    You're post is excellent and well informed. I share your concerns. I've gave thought to planning sizes around it this issue. I hadn't heard of the specific incidents you mention, but I know it's a potential concern with a very tall narrow radial tire, and I take this issue seriously. That's...

    These are possible sizes to make that should have been options in the poll. I accidentally omitted these choices from poll. If you want any of these sizes, please post your preferences. 33 X 10.5 R16D 33 X 10.5 R16E 35 X 11.2 R16D 35 X 11.2 R16E 36 X 11.2 R16D 36 X 11.2 R16E 35 X...

    Thanks for your great post. I don't know a date for you. What I was told is that Interco is currently working on resuming production of the sizes they made before. Production resumes one size at a time, I was told. One good sign is that the US Military has discovered the Trxus MT and is now...

    Hi. Many of you were making great posts in the original thread, but there were a couple people making many off-topic posts and flames in the original thread until it was ruined. So I deleted the original thread. I am remaking the thread as a poll. Please vote for 1 to 3 Trxus MT sizes you want...
