Anyone know of a good shop that has good service? I'm looking for some 37's, probably a 12.50 in a 15" rim. I looked at NTW and they the IROKS for 207, i thought that was pretty good. I'm not an IROK fan for some reason though.

I'd also like to have your suggestion on what tire. You know my size. Explorer see's 0 street miles, all rock some mud. Any ideas?

That's all i'm hearing about them. I don't really like the way they look, but obviously they work since everyone loves them.
 












Yeah i've been noticing today in my searching that 37's aren't as common as i thought. I don't care if i get a 38 really. I did notice that 4wheelparts has shipping at 10 bucks a tire and $100 off if you buy 4 tires 37" or bigger, could be buying some tires this weekend!
 






Try http://www.4wd.com They have good prices and shipping is usually very quick.
Super Swamper SSR in 37s on 15s run about $236 a piece.
 


















I love boggers. That maybe the tire i end up with. I crawlers do not come in that size, plus they expensive. I'd have to have Colin's kind of money to get those.:D
 












LOL i guess we are in the same financial status.

Looks like the only thing i can really get for the bogger is a 38.5x11.00 I like the size, but if i get to tall i won't be able to get out of my garage, lol.
 






You definitely want the 38 TSL SX's then ;) But then again, I am biased (as opposed to radial).
 






Yeah i'm bias too. Cheaper and i don't have a need for a radial.

They make a 37" Bogger.
 






In a 15" rim? I can't seem to find them all the sites i've looked at. Do you know where?
 












That's the exact tire i want. I did a quick search for SSW-B-120 on google and only came up with Summits page for that tire. I guess i'll have to dig deeper to see if i can find them somewhere else. I guess i could call 4wheelparts on monday to see if they have it and i get the 100 buck discount and 10 per tire shipping, that would be nice.

Try these Google queries:

"swamper b120': http://www.google.com/search?q=swamper+B120&hl=en&btnG=Search&sa=N&tab=fw

"interco b-120": http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=swamper+B-120&btnG=Search

"interco b-120": http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...official_s&hs=i1J&q=interco+B-120&btnG=Search

"interco b120": http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...esnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=interco+B120&spell=1


The prefix "SSW" is something SummitRacing adds to indicate the brand as it is possible for two different brands to have the same part number.
 






Thanks for the links. I got on ask.com and searched around and found them everywhere. LOL, guess i just wasn't looking hard enough.

4 wheel parst has them and with the shipping and money off it's still 1075 :eek:

I posted a couple of 'wanted' threads on some other sites, one of them being my local club and sure enough one dude has some 39 TSLs that are brand new about 3 years old for $750 and another guy has these:

The one has some grooves, come with the 8 lug rims, brand new for $200 for both, so i bought them :D

$750 was a good price on the TSLs, but i'd never be able to get my junk out of the garage!
