No one seems to have any. Most are saying 4-6 weeks. Tire Rack doesn't even have the 315 listed on the website anymore. :confused:
 
Thanks Randy, but I'm looking for 4.
 
landtank had 5 for sale in the classifieds, including one brand new.
 
Iraq?
Last time I checked, the tire place said 35" MTR's and bfg's were on BO b/c the military was taking them
 
What do they use 35s on? Humvees are 37s, I think.
 
Maybe it's the manufacturing time that the military is taking up?
 
Isn't the military driving cruisers over there as well? 120 series?
 
105 series. I believe the next TT will have some photos.

In June I wanted 35" MTRs and was told I was out of luck for 6 months because of backorders because of the military.

Two things I don't understand. One 315s are on a 16" rim they are using 16.5" rims on the HumVees. They are using a 37" tire too. So why does this effect 315s?

If shipping was so spendy I'd sell you mine. But as we discussed that takes away the deal.

If your read 4wheel parts fine print they are substituting their Pro Comp ATs instead. Not a very good deal in my opinion.
 
At this point, I'm seriously considering trying the Nitto Terra Grapplers. I have heard mostly good things about them. They're available and are about $30 a tire cheaper.
 
I get 15" MTRs in 2 days max. I have bought several sets of them in the last 2 weeks. 35s and 37s. I have not tried the 16"s. I buy take off 315 BFG H2 tires locally for $500 a set. Check with your Hummer dealers. They sell the take offs to someone, might as well be you. If I ever get caught up with the people that are waiting for them, I'll post up.

I was looking at doing that with the H3's @ the Hummer dealers as some came with Bridgestone Duelers in 285's.

Anyways, are the 315's you are getting 16" or 15"??

I am almost thinking I want to step it up to the 315's ....... but that would leave me with one set of very nice 275 Revo's as well as a set of some barely used VERY nice 285 Revos in the garage and one pissed fiance' ...... is it worth it?:D
 
Except the H2s are on 17" rims. Although there are plenty of attractive 17" rims for an 80, it sucks to find them with the correct backspacing.
 
315/75R16 is the size you are referring to correct? BFG is updating the speed rating from Q (99MPH) to R (108MPH). The Q's are no longer available from BFG (discontinued as of 9/14/05), and the new version hasn't yet been released.

Give the Nitto's a try, I bet you like them.
 
according to the hummer site the H3 comes stock either with 265 or 285 16" depending on model so that would be a perfect take off for anyone wanting 33s or 32s. I didn't see it on the hummer site but a bfg news release says they are all at ko's.

Well that's good news. The Q speed rating did bother me a bit... not that I go over 90 in my 80. :doh:
