Treadwrite Tires info!

[Roark]

I just ordered a set of there 33x12.5x15 mud/s tires so I will post pics and how well they work when I get them.
I found out that they are going to be getting several new casing molds and around June 1st will start producing tires. The reason I thought some of you might be interested in is that two of the molds will be for BFG Mud and BFG A/T tread patterns and will be both be for a 16" wheel.
He also was asking me about larger sizes as in 35"+
They are thinking of duplicating a line from Interco. He asked about th Truxis (I think I spelled that wrong) and I told him alot of people run the SS or SSR .
The guy I talked to was named Joel and they are taking a pole for new tread designs. So if you guys have a favorite it would be worth your time to call or probably just e-mail them what you think.
The idea is to find the most popular casing size so they would be able to fill the demand.
They are (like everybody else) going to be raising there prices but not by much and probably not until next year. The set of four cost me shipped to my door $409.00.with a 2 year waranty and should get around 35k miles(of coarse style of driving , etc.)maybe more mabye less
Just thought some of you might want to know

Howdy! Never heard of them. Is this a re-cap/re-tread business? Wonder if the warranty(and the tires) would hold up to running at 12 psi on a 6000 pound rig. John

Yes these are retreads but hear are a couple of links that have reviewed them.
I was told that all of the 33"and under tires are made from a three piece mold.Which is how they are made new from the factory. For now all of the 35 " are made from a 2 piece mold so they may have some issues with balancing . He did say they balance all tires before shipping but the 2 piece process each tire could very as much as a 1/16 of an inch .
They aslo only try and use the bigger brand names as far as casings go. Usually BFG, Goodyear, Dunlop

These are just the hi-tech retreads right?

 

[Roark]

Yes and sorry for the pic size.. woops!
They changed there name to Treadwright.

I like it! Re-vulcanizing the tires during the re-treading process completely binds the belts to the new rubber tread, or so I've read, so it should be just as good as the original assuming that the tread rubber is up to spec.

Let us know how you like them!!

where exactly did you get these tires?. cause 409 for 4, seems within my budget range,

I have these on my BJ60, I have absolutely no complaints with them, they are definately worth the money IMOP. I've had em on for about 2-1/2 months and they are great in the snow!

You must have gotten the last set! Jerk!

They are getting about 70 tires in next week or around then.
He said they had orders for 40 or 50 already so if you want to try and get in on this order you better order quick. Otherwise it may be another 3 or 4 weeks.
