Title: Do you want a Duratrac 35 R15 size? Let's make it happen.
Post by: CB3 on December 30, 2010, 12:53:23 AM

Hi. I'm CB3. I do NOT work for Goodyear. I'm a Jeep enthusiast who likes Duratrac tires, and I'd like to be able to buy a 35 X ? R15, but Goodyear doesn't make a 35 R15 size Duratrac.

By 35 R15 I mean any of the following:

35 X 11 R15

35 X 11.5 R15

35 X 12 R15

35 X 12.5 R15

i.e. - any of those widths, 35" tall, 15" wheel.

Before anyone tells me there is a metric size that is 35 tall, and R16; let me say that I want R15 or nothing.

I'm sure there are others besides myself who want a 35 X ? R15 Duratrac.

So how can we get Goodyear to make that size?[/COLOR]

Please go to this link and email Goodyear: Contact Goodyear Tires USA (http://www.goodyeartires.com/help-center/)
Tell Goodyear you want a 35 tall R15 Duratrac and you might get it.

If enough people contact Goodyear requesting that size, we have a chance of getting that size.

Edited in Later: Goodyear has both their email and toll free phone number at that link. So you can email or call, or both.

So in a previous thread, you said you liked Trxus.  This week it's Duratracs.  Next week ???   I think we have better things to do then contact tire companies asking them to produce specific size tires.  I'm sure Interco and Goodyear have done the analysis and know which sizes to offer the public.  Let's give this a rest please.

You should take what ever information you can come up with from those threads, go out and buy some tires, and if they don’t work then sell them and try, try again. You’ll find something that’s good for YOU and only you.  ;)
