Tread Wright Tires...Any Good? - Page 2

just a thought.. Most Big rig truck tires are re-treads. Just think about how many miles a year they put on thier tires.. I honestly think you will have no issues.

I had a tire shop tell me they wont hold up to serious offroading . They say they will seperate on rocks and trails cuz of the way the tire gets twisted and flexed. Is this true? I was looking at them too but am unsure. I use mine as DD and off-roading. I need new tires soon and need to know what I sould do.

I've abused these tires more than any one should, mainly because they were so cheap. The set I have now took nothing balance. If you get them you'll be satisfied

Do you think that a salesman at a Ford dealership would tell you to go buy a Jeep?

Think about it....

For (4) 31" tires...

Beverly Hills, CA - $101.64
Spokane, WA - $83.64
Austin, TX - $83.64
Albany, NY - $119.96
Miami, FL - $119.96

Any location closer to South Dakota will be cheaper.

Very good point.

Has anyone run the kedge grip tires? For the popular sizes (235 & 31"), the regular tread is hard to find in stock, but the kedge grip is usually available.

Oh, and I think I will be going down to the treadwright business sometime soon. Will keep everyone posted.

I got my tires in today. I know everyone wants details, so I inspected and took some pictures. Total price was $297.00 shipped to my door (I live 2 hours away).

These are the 235/75-15 ATG (P). The (C) tires must be made from 2 ply carcasses, because these showed a higher load rating on the website. Actually this specific tire did not show a load rating, but the 235 Mud tires did.

The ONLY blems I see are the center portions of a couple outside lugs that are rounded for some reason. It looks like the siping machine had a blade issue. There are only 4-5 of these 'bad' lugs on each tire.

Here are pics....

I have the BFG looking 285s with the Kedge grip, I still only have less then 5k miles on them so far but I haven't had any traction problems at all

Very informative thread! If my BFG A/Ts ever die I'll probably get the Tread Wright knock offs.

They will be fine..there is another website fourm that put them to the test from offroad to street driving and they never said one bad thing about them.

I usually air mine down to 20psi when I hit the high country, and I've had zero issues after 3,000 miles.

Those are the atg's, looks good. I was going to order a set but they said they are 2-3 weeks on back order. But they had the crawler m/t's ready to ship so i ordered a set of 5 of those with kedge grip in a 235 75 15. Cost me 410.00 shipped to north Denver.

Ive had my Treadwright Crawlers for about 2 months or so now, Im nothing but impressed and will be suprised if i ever by another type of brand new tire for my Jeeps again.

New!
