Re: Old Armstrong type tires - Still available?

Goodyear has the Workhorse tires, usually heavier load ranges (C, D, E...) but you can get them in 30x9.5 on 15 inch rims, probably not what you're going for though. The 16 inchers are just bigger, like 245/75, 235/85, 265/75... They also have the MT/R series that are the big lug design and come in pretty much the same sizes as the Horses. The first half of the tread will wear away fast but when they get down to around 8-9/32nds they last for a long time. Just keep rotating them and you'll be fine. I am also looking for super tall/skinnies for my truck. Interco has those LTBs in a 34" tall size but I forget the width, maybe 9.5? I was checking them out, not too expensive for LTBs: about $125 per tire depending on where you get them from.

Yeah, that blue Power Wagon is so dang sweeeet.........

Back to work!
