Well how many of these do you think interco could sale if they were 33x16-15. I need a good ballpark estimate. I have been talking with them about making us some tires specifically for woodsbuggies. They want ideas on what kind of tire we are looking for. I don't know how far this will go. The way they talked if we could come up with a tire design we liked and could get a order for a hundred tires, they would be very interested in starting production. But the only downfall is it will take 3 months to get a mold to start making them. If you could post your thoughts and ideas here and I will give interco the link.

And if some one could post this pic please.

Thanks,
Terry

Light and flexy is the key. Not sure what a cut firestone weighs. But if it were close to that I'm sure it would sell. Plus not needing to cut and groove saves time and money. If they get em light i'll order a set.

Tell 'em to just copy a 31x 15.50 -15 23 degree firestone flotation and make it a 4 ply and I bet they'd have a hundred ordered within a week. :wink:

Definitely 4 ply flexible casing. No more than 1/16" thick rubber covering the sidewalls & area between the lugs. 10 lugs per side, evenly spaced & alternating between the sides. lugs dont extend past center of tire. 23 degree angle. 33 x 16 - 15

The lighter, the better....under 50 lbs. each
