T tires

Post by Will » Sat Dec 16, 2023 2:43 pm

Its been a very long time since I've been on here. I was on Coker's web site and noticed a storage in T tires. I hope this isn't going to be a thing.
As Tom Sellick told Marston in the movie Quigley Down Under, I told you I dont have much use for handguns, I never said I didn't know how to use them!

It has been a thing since at least September, I was unable to order any 30x3.5 driver tires or tubes. And don't be surprised that when they do become available they will cost more.

Coker tire is having a sale right now. I recently bought 4 Firestone tires and saved a little bit.

Coker tires also available through jegs.com. They always have a "get $xx back if you spend $xxx" deal and free shipping.

Summit offers free shipping, but no kickbacks AFAIK.
Just saw a 10% off sale e-mail from Universal Tire.

Have you tried Blockley? Coker, Lucas, Universal, etc., are one source. Blockley is another. I ordered two, then three, to keep the two orders from being combined into a more costly package. In both cases I placed the order Very early on Tuesday and the tires arrived on my front porch in Kansas on Thursday afternoon.
