Tires??????
Mar 3^rd, 2010 at 2:10pm

I tried ordering some 42/16.5 SX2 tires but they are now unavailable. I was told that the company that makes Super Swamper tires is having money problems. CC Rosen has nothing in stock in the 42 size. Does anyone have suggestions on a tire with a 16.5 rim. I want to keep my H1's. Thinking on going to a 39.5 but I dont think they would be much taller than the 38.5 I have now. Tell me what you think.

	Re: Tires?????? Reply #1 - Mar 3^rd, 2010 at 2:41pm Anybody have any input on pitbull rockers.I have them on my street bronco but have not wheeled them at all.I can say they appear to have very stout sidewalls and are acutally taller than the size on the sidewall for example my 35's are almost 36 tall.Just a thought not a whole lot of choices in 16.5 sizes.

	Re: Tires?????? Reply #7 - Mar 4^th, 2010 at 10:45am does cc have anything 40-44? Get 44 if you have to. they did have something on their website that showed the outside dia. Make sure you look at each one. A 15" rim may have a smaller od than a 16.5. Also each kind is different.

Cliff so much for your pitbulls

Here is a quote from user on another forum.

"Not into 4 wheeling, but read some post and thought I would reply. I work, or did until a couple weeks ago, at Denman Tire. Not on strike, not officially a lockout, just no money. If we dont find a new buyer soon, we will shut down. Yes we made a lot of interco, and all ground hawgs, and most if not all pitbulls. I know we didnt make the thornbirds. Warehouse is about empty. Interco not in trouble, already talking about pulling their molds to make somewhere else. Not sure if this helps any but thats about all I know."
