Im really wanting to buy some ltb tires. Only problem is how fast are they going to wear out on the street? Looking in the 34x10.5 range.

Looking in the 34x10.5 range. I've been looking at the same tires, really thinking about pulling the trigger as well.

It doesn't make sense. They are still doing huge advertising. If there was any financial instability they'd be cutting some of their ads. And they keep developing new products. If they were is dire straits they probably wouldn't be developing new stuff and stick with the tried and true stuff. Like the new M-16 tire, is it different enough from the TRXUS to pick up more of the market?

One thing I have heard about Interco is that they've moved some production out of the US. If they did that, that might explain why they ended up short.

I just picked up some used LTBs this morning. They are 34x10.50s and in decent shape. Hopefully they will last for at least a year.

You are wrong. Interco is moving their plant and have temporarily stopped shipping/receiving for the move.

Thank god! I was starting to get a little bummed. I love the Interco tire for all around wheeling. Not very good on the the street though. I would never want to buy one of the tires for street. Perhaps an MTR or something like that.

the LTB's are made in china and from what I understand the obama administration is going to put a tariff on chinese tires so interco isn't shippin any till they find a plant to produce em in north america, now don't hold me to that it's just what I've read....LTB's are made in china though, that's why they are cheaper than all the other interco's
