    I purchace my truck tires from the area distributor, not just tire shop. Just got off the phone. No premium rubber for LP 24.5 is available. Dont know when it will be. Import rubber is limited also.

    I just got US made Firestone FD692's from Walmart of all places. Best price I could find. As much as I'd like 24.5 lp's because #1 they look better, and #2 easier to polish, kind of glad I stuck with 22's for price and availability.

    I been wanting to switch. Simply because my trailers are 22.5. I guess buy the time I need the next set. I will.

    All your reasons are correct.

    I wanted another set of them open shoulder Dayton D620's & couldn't even get those last year.. o_O

    Not saying you'll like them at all, but I was more comfortable with Vietnam than China.. lol

    Ironhead IDL300 FS. 30/32nds deep
    285/75r24.5 were about $300 last year
    No low speed hop,
    stacks make it hard to tell if they're quite,
    Been stuck at least 3 times now sand & mud.. :rolleyes:

    Good luck, hope you find something decent..
