Try calling LA Products at 330-867-7900. I saw those tires on the shelf, I know they have them. They also have a four ply 31 v-treads.
wait a minute, what 23 tires are you talking about, i know they have the smaller 12 inch wide 4 ply V treads and the 31/15 4 ply V treads

the flotation 23 firestone,i guess they call them 23's becuase of the degree of angle on the lugs.they run almost straight across as aposed to the ones i run witch are at about a 45 degree angle on the lugs.chad :mrgreen:

holy sh%t bat crapper,those must have golden beadlocks with them.this guy must have the last set on earth with that price.lol.do they have the 23's in the 8ply,because that would be fine with me,once you cut them down there really ain't that much diffrence in the weight,and ive noticed where i cut the sidewalls down a little on mine they seem to flex real good.i do alot of pipeline climbing around here and you have little stoubs where we have them mowed so the 8plys may be better for me.chad :mrgreen:

no way did i buy those,lol,i actually traded a set of demon ditch diggers 31x15.50x15 that was almost new for them,they had a little more than the 3 ride story on them,but they still have 3/4 tread left id say,still has all the tits on the sides so they havent been run much.i paid $10.60 to have them switched over to his rims and i had about $50.00 in the tires i traded,so i think i did good.i get them on my beadlocks and cut them i will post some pics.one thing i did notice the other tires was about 2 1/2 inches taller than the 23s and both was on 14 wide rims,so im losing some height for sure.chad :mrgreen:
