    How important is tire availability?

    So after 6 weeks it's time for an update! Went to Discount Tire today and ordered 5 Hankook Dynapro ATMs in P235/75R17. They paid me $160 for the 4 remaining good half dead tires that I had. They also had $75 rebate for Labor Day, $60 rebate for being stupid enough to use the company credit...

    Hankook DanaPro ATM 75k review

    Great review, certainly convinced me! I'll keep in mind to not expect too much at 80,000 miles on the tires! You crack me up! I can only assume you were rotating in a spare, but that's still really good!

    How important is tire availability?

    Yep...hence my question. I can get some sort of 245/70R17 anywhere, but only one place in San Diego has any 235/75R17 in stock.

    I don't see the 235/75R17 going completely away since it's a stock size for some F-150s. Regardless of any opinions about that truck you can't deny that they sell a lot of them. But AT vs. HT may be the issue there. Who knows? Certainly not me. I have a lift that is 2.5" over stock. Probably...

    How important is tire availability?

    All this data is for the Cooper AT3, except for the stock which is for the HTP. Comes straight from Cooper website. Good points, but already taken care of. :ylsmoke: Though, if anyone can find tread width for the Nitto Grapplers in 235/75R17 it would be helpful. Nitto has section width and...

    How important is tire availability?

    I'm looking into some new tires for my Jeep Liberty. I've pretty much narrowed it down to one brand and model (mostly due to limited size availability, but they are well regarded tires anyway), but I'm having trouble deciding on the size.
