irox were never disturbed and to my understanding nor were boggers... but tsl. tsl/sx, and ltb are very hard to get according to 4 wheel parts and national tire and wheel

I tried to order a set of 35 inch LTB's a few months back and was told they were not currently available. Couldn't even backorder a set. I haven't tried since, but i will be in about a month so i hope this is all sorted out.

a real bummer to hear they may not be available for that long. Hopefully someone can give some more info.
Call 'em. Some sizes are available while others aren't right now. If you give them the size and type they might be able to locate a set from one of their dealers. They seem to be pretty confident that they'll be back to normal eventually.

I call about once a month and keep getting the same reply that its going to be awhile. I need some of the bigger ltb's also. I only bought two so I could set my truck up and only have to climb over two not four. Doesn't seem like it was a great idea now.

I spoke to my Interco Rep. last week on some Irox's and he had said some of there line's are in stock but others are low or out with no plans/eta on production until there's enough demand/orders to do so. Like said there not promising anything at this time.
Larger sizes 35" + are getting very hard to get do to low stock/low production or no production at all :mad: Mickey Thompson is having similar problems right now also just not as bad. BFG had problems with the KM2 line for almost a year but has been able to fill orders with ease the last 6-8 months and currently filling with no problems.
I wouldn't plan on getting any Interco tire soon if it's currently out of stock or on B/O. Look for another tire.

Since we're talking about tires I called mickey Thompson last night and asked if they were going to be making a smaller version of the 54" claw and the lady told me they might be groping the bans claw all together. She said not to quote her on that (oops) but that's what she has been hearing.

One of the magazines this month showed the new Claw TTC at as some sort of industry show with a brief description. However, for my understanding it is a radial version and looked like the current radial just with some sidewall tread that seems to be the current big trend. As typical with a radial version it did not *look* nearly as agressive at the 54" version.

you may be able to get sx's...as haddix said a buddy ordered a set of 4 with no problems...call 4 wheel parts
so is the reason for the price jack on all of there tires looked at a set at the beging of januray and am ready to order but the price has gone a little higher, for a truxus m/t it is now 250 a tire when they were just 190 each

I've got a set of 37" rockers now, and I can say they are a TOUGH tire. I've run them into some stuff I was sure the sidewall was going to tear out, but just folded over and kept going. They do awesome in the rocks, I've been all over Black mountain with them and had no problems. They do look like a chunky tire and I was concerned about them loading up with Kentucky clay, but so far it hasn't been a problem. Granted I don't mud bog hardly at all, but slippery soggy trails around here have not been a problem.
I did have one issue, I'm not sure it wasn't my own fault yet. I have 17" rims with beadlocks and I lost an inner bead in harlan. But I was running 5PSI in the fronts and had the tire in a bad spot, it appears it had rolled the bead off the inner. I've never had a tire do that before, or since.
Personally I would reccomend them. They work awesome, hard hard sidewalls, and look pretty cool too.

I have a buddy with rockers that always lost an inner bead like that... Was weird i thought too... Coincidence?

For what it is worth, I have lost an inner bead on my Boggers. I run 16s
