Ive heard its hard to buy 16.5 tires now sooo and i gonna b in a pickle next year when tires wear out? Thinkin thats why i got a good deal ...im running 35" bald toyo mts on factory 18" harley rims now but thats ok cuz trucks in shop for other reasons wont go into that
Should i just resell these monsters or what??

I feel your pain man. Last week I blew my rim out. It was a 16.5 American Eagle Alloy, hit a pot hole and blew the entire outer lip off of it. Tried to find a replacement, no go. So I lost a 16.5 rim and a 33x12.50x16.5 tire. Pissed me off good, but I just bought a new set of 18's with 305's!!
But I had bought the 16.5 tires at Pep Boys down here in VA. Not sure about up where you live. Just research it now and start saving if you have to.

I just sold the tires and wheels for the same price i bought them! I gonna pick up a set of bf AT's for my 18" harley rims, i had toyo mts on but i plan on driving to florida at christmas and last time to florida the bfs were quite. The toyos on I95 might not be so good!

Those guys get regular shipments, I have dealt with them before and a set of 4 usually run around 650 bucks. They are only 6 ply and they are bias ply but..I have to say they tow like a friggin dream I have no idea why cause it makes no sense! They also hold traction in muddy fields practically until they are slicks!
