Radial TSL's

[Fancy]

I have gotten quite a few story's on this and wanted to know what you guys have heard (i have yet to here from interco). Are the size/spec's listed on their website the only avalable sizes for the TSL radials? I just recently sold a pair of old 39.5 TSL radials(which aren't listed on the website). After trying a few other tires i want to go back to the radials but haven't seen any above 38. My only conclusion is that they just don't make larger sizes any more.

you sure thay were radials ?

i dont ever recall radial in that size.

my 38 x 15.5 x 16.5's are out of production.... i had heard it had something to do with Denman going bankrupt....

 

[Fancy]

they said radial on the side of the tire. i can't seem to find the pics of them i had.

So wait they are no longer making the 38 in a 16.5??????

Thats what i was going to get if they didn't have any larger... Well that sucks!!!!

 

[sweetk30]

better start callin tire sellers for stock check on hand and get some.

 

[k20]

well.......if the 38x15.5x16.5s are out of production, guess that cements Ill be getting new wheels (bling bling mofo) when my tires r gone.

 

[ryoken]

yup, a few list having them... whether they do or not, i don't know....

not sured if they discontinued that size/style, or it's one that Denman was making fior them and it'll be rereleased at some point....

How about the 38" SSR?

my understanding of the situation is that Denman made alot of Interco's tires, more specifically, Ground hawgs, TSL, SX, Swamper, SSR's..... all are on national backorder until Interco can get the molds set up at some of their other facility's.... probably the places that make the other models, thornturds, trexxus, etc...

so i'm guessing that ALL of those tires will be available again at some point... when, who knows...

The only 39.5 radial swamper I know of is the Irok.

The old school TSL tread that everyone thinks of when they say swamper never came in a 39.5 radial.

i still wanna run some 39.5 boggers out back and 39.5 bias TSL's up front on my trail steelies...

some company in china is starting production on all the tires that denman was making. they are starting with the most popular size/style first. they said up to 2 years for all the tires to came back.

 

[sweetk30]

well if thats true then = import tax and = higher price.

man I'm glad I got my new SSR radials last fall right before everything started to fall apart at the factory. That was like 6 months ago.... and they were getting hard to find back then

I was looking at getting some LTB's and had the tire rep at work doing some research for me, and he said May before they started producing them again. So they are coming back, just very slowly. The most popular sizes and models first.

my friend just got some 42" sx stickies. they took about 2 months to come in.

 

[Fancy]

Well thanks for all the reply's. Ya i hope thats the case and they are coming back. I really had my heart set on some TSL radials and my truck see a lot of street time and i heard the ssr's are kind of soft and wear quick. I really can't rock anything less than 38's it just isn't right to me, kind of used to the 40"ers. Plus i just got a brand new pair of H1's and 16.5's have a limited selection as is.

 

[stumpbuster]

^^ SSR's dont wear quick

 

[Blue85]

well if thats true then = import tax and = higher price.

Well everything else made in China ends up costing less. Heck, you can get stuff shipped to you from China for less than getting shipped from the next state over. I would worry more about the material quality and workmanship.

yup..
