Oh hold up, this would be for like peep that go work there temporarily from out of state

 

I'm seeing private worker as any worker not employed by the public(government, state or federal), but not positive

 

Treadwright aren't retreads- they are remolds. There's a HUGE difference.

And yes, I have been running them since well before they changed the company name, something like 16 years now, about 8 sets of tires over 5 different vehicles, and never a single problem.

I would no sooner worry about a problem with Treadwrights than I would any manufacturer's tire. Not to say it never happens, it's just a statistical anomaly.

 

Be neat if they made 255’s

 

Freaking awesome... and depressing...

what is my excuse for not getting out on my bike, now?

 

Someone is very behind

 

That’d make you pucker if you saw it in the rear view

 

Ask and they may deliver

 

RIP

 

Or just use the one below to go up a size cause it’s so cheap

 

I have been wanting to try them the next time I buy a set of new tires but I keep picking up used ones

 

The only bad thing about them, in my experience, has been that they usually have to wait to ship til they run a batch.

Example- I ordered two sets of 31X10.5X15 Guard Dogs, 2 weeks ago. Called Friday and found out they only have one with the KEdge Grip additive which I requested- it's a GREAT add, and one of the reasons I keep going back to these tires. Can't comment on snow, but in the wet they work great. Anyway, they are two weeks out til they run another batch with the Kedge Grip. If I just wanted the normals, they have 35 in stock and could ship immediately. No thanks, I will wait. My present tires aren't completely toast yet.

 

You part the 1% ers now?

 

Wut?

This is true, but they would have to have a LOT of requests. Look at their process- they'd have to make a new fixture for the molding process.

They used to offer a lot in the 15" rim size. They don't anymore, because people aren't using that size as much anymore. A few years back they went from just remolding the tread area, into a full bead-to-bead remold, requiring new fixtures. This was surely a large expense.

Not saying it won't happen, just you'll need a large amount of requests.

 

Oh that's good to know, definitely a thing to mind if/when I need them

 

should I get new steelies, or more expensive, aluminum wheels?

 

You're paying the bill. Why does it matter what we think?

 

Save your money.
