Default Mickey Thompson 315-35-R17

Ok,

Dose anyone have any idea where i might find these in stock?? I ordered them thru jegs back in the beginning of february and they told me they were backordered untill 3-19-08. Well i called today, and now they are back ordered till the end of april. Summit is the same deal.

Or might there be a better tire to go with??? I have 10.5inch TTM rims for the back. This is going on my 2k1 TA.

Any ideas / help would be great.

Thanks...

I ordered a pair from Summit the day before Thanksgiving knowing they were on backorder but was told they would be sent out the first of January. January came and I checked the status of my order and it said April. I then heard rumors that it wouldn't be till June so I canceled the order. I got on tirerack and ordered BFG DRs and had them 3 days later. I just got them put on two days ago and god damn to they hook. Maybe next summer I'll run the Mickeys but I sure am loving these tires right now.

Do you think i could use those 315's on a 10.5 rim?? I was gonna go with the 305/30/18 but nobody seems to have any. Summit's website says 11" rim width minimum for the 315. I'm sure it would work, just dont want it to look stupid

^^^ They don't recommend anything else but an 11in rim like you said but I have known many others that have done it on a 10.5 in rim.

I run 275/40/17s MT on a 8.5" rim and the minimum is 9" so you should be fine. ...it won't look stupid. LOL Oh and picked up a new pair at Summit in Ohio last week, so this size is currently in stock.
