Update on Power King Super Traction

Thanks for all the information and the picture. It's definitely the tire I'm looking for.

I called Pomp's Tire in Green Bay. They are quoting a price of $128 per tire plus shipping. The guy at Headquarters and the salesman told me they haven't been discontinued. Also, the salesman told me they were tubeless, which of course, they aren't. Doesn't inspire confidence in a long-distance purchase with no easy way to return the tires.

I called a regional discount tire store which had been selling alot of them. They said discontinued.

Then I called a local tire place that confirmed the tires have been discontinued but said they had some in stock at $137 and would call me back. I'll let you know what I learn.

By the way, mounting a directional tire as a spare must be fun. I guess you have to anticipate which side of the truck you will need it on first.
