brickhouse15 Posted January 25, 2019 Author Share Posted January 25, 2019 I’ll give them a call. That would be helpful as I live in MA. I’d be surprised if they stock an obsolete tire size though.

brickhouse15 Posted January 25, 2019 Author Share Posted January 25, 2019 I mean obsolete as in they are no longer produced in the USA... as far as I know there are Indian and Chinese manufacturers that make them, but at much lower quality.

If you buy, for example, Triangle or Double Coin, you're getting a first rate tire. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55408-11r-24-tires/#findComment-414144 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've basically standardised on Triangles Tyres & have on many occasions had Triangles cases that have been recapped (Bandag) 3 times. 2 Quote "Be who you are and say what you feel...Because those that matter...don't mind...And those that mind....don't matter." - Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55408-11r-24-tires/#findComment-414149 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to waste anyone’s time, it’s just that this is all new to me, and I’m learning as I go. I've heard positive about Triangle, and Double Coin also. Several I know are running them and although they don't wear as well as a Michelin, Goodyear, Continental, etc. the mile for mile cost is less. Just my observation from conversations and no direct experience. Hankook is another brand I hear is very good. I'm planning to purchase 10 Triangle tires in 11RX24.5 for my water truck next year when I get to using it again. I've purchased three sets of WestLake branded tires for my utility trailers and one set for my family car with good service from all. They produce truck tires also and if they wear anything like their trailer tires have for me, I wouldn't mind a set.

Vladislav Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I was also in need of 11.00-24 tube tyres since that size was original to my Mack. I didn't roam over United States checking out every tyre shop. So using interweb search bought what I could find locally. Those were 12.00R24 West Lake Chinese tyres. Unfortunately no experience riding on them so far since the truck is not ready. But from the outside observation and during mounting on rims no issue seemed. Another Chinese brand I'm familiar with is Aeolus. I bought a set of 2 steers and 8 drives and put them on a R-model. It's not a working truck and no many miles experience. But I drove it for 2 or 3 thousand km to the moment and at least can state they're round Also I can tell plenty of people here buy Aeolus, Triangle, Double Coin, West Lake and other brands and quite satisfy with them as long as I was answered asking. Sometimes I here "I'll buy a pair of Michelins for the steer and the rest of Chinese for the drives and the trailer."

Coenut Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I have 11r24.5 triangle tire on my r model. They are nice but the sidewalls are really stiff. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55408-11r-24-tires/#findComment-414200 Share on other sites More sharing options...
41chevy Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 My 2015 Ram 5500 came from the factory with 7 Hankook tires on it They were also on my wifes Fusion, minor wear in 22000 miles when I auctioned it.. The ones on my Ram rode and handled well on dry and wet. They are in a container with only 450 miles on them, I put 4 on / off road super singles on it and dumped the dualies.
