Rear Tires...

This may not be in the correct sections but...

This truck is in the current issue of Sport Truck magazine. The rear tires are 345/55R17 BFG Sport Truck Radials according to the article. Are those tires still being made? I tought that BFG discontinued them about 8 years ago. If they are out there, where could I get a set?




Anybody know about these??

Re: Rear Tires...

I couldn't find it on BFG, Discount Tire, or Tire Rack site. I am going to guess it is no longer made. BFG doesn't even list "Sport Truck Radials" any more.,

Re: Rear Tires...

Your probally going to have to run a drag radial if you want a tire that size, but no fear there are alot of companies making them, Nitto, BFG, Mickey Thompson, just to name a few.

Re: Rear Tires...

Hoosier has a pro street radial that is similar in size, that might be my only option when it comes time.

Re: Rear Tires...

I had contacted BFG about those tires about 3 years ago and was informed that they had been out of production for a while.
