2stacksuperdog Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Did you call Toce Bros. out of Torrington? He has about the best prices in the state and can get you any tire. Quote Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdogtrucker Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 No this was Petes Tire Barn(was pricing for a friend).Was thinking of putting tubeless on my B81 if I keep it,they have an old skool style retread for 288- each.Said they were popular with dumps/garbage trucks.I was surprised that size has been in the same ballpark pricewise for a few years.

2stacksuperdog Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Their prices are a little high. You could call Toce and ask for Sonny and he will be able to get what your looking for. They take care of all the towns and state and all the big contractors so their prices are pretty cheap. Quote Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigiestrada Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 got some tires in today down here in Texas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigiestrada Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Running out of tires here at my shop I've taken a few trips to buy used virgin or recap tires up in Ohio at Dales truck parts but since tires are going up I haven't gone on the road to look for some. If anyone know where I can find a good lot of tires I would appreciate it. Was thinking about going back to Dales truck parts but they don't have a trailer load I can get and is not worth for me going all the way up there.

Freightrain Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Last summer I checked on new 22.5's for front of my truck, as I thought maybe mine were junk. Ugh, was going to be about $400 each out the door. HOLY crap!! I paid $250 each back in 2002. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

REOGasMackDiesel Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I'm looking for ten 11.00-20s, I'm looking wildly aggressive tires. T831's or Super All Tractions, This whole $600/tire is crazy expensive !Mike Quote 1953 REO M48.1962 GMC 3000.1969 AMC AMX-390.1983 AMC Eagle SX/4.1988 AMC Jeep Comanche.

RFCDrum Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I have 11r20's on my mack and had to go to Chinese tires. I didn't run the truck enough to find out if I really liked them or not. Cheers, Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stacksuperdog Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Call up Toce Bros. tires in Torrington, CT. He is a good year dealer and can get you any tire you need at a reasonable price. A buddy of my dads just got 6 11R20s from him that are goodyear. Quote Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
