Treadwright tires

[Bender02]

has anyone run any of the treadwright tires? If so what did you run and how did you like them? Kicking the idea around of getting a set.

I’ve ran them before,
I ran Two sets.. first I ran a 285 65 18? I don’t remember, it was a 33” in the guard dog “ Looks like the Mtr tire” then I switched to a 35 in the same tread and gave my brother the 33”s. I ran them on a 02 Chevy Silverado 1500 and he put them on his 04 F250. I’ve never had a tire that hooked better in any condition.Sand/Snow/mud/rock/ - They flat out just perform. The Kedge grip is cool, but it’s overkill unless you are on ice 6 Mo the of the year. I ran them in extreme weather “ -2* F to 125* F . My brother still runs them on his truck and just put a set on his wife’s Durango, they are happy with them.

Ratket how loud are they? I have a buddy with the guard dogs and you can hear him coming from a mile away. He also had a tire that wouldn’t balance so treadwright sent him another one no questions asked. He uses the unbalanced tire as a spare.

That makes me feel better. I was nervous about getting a set and the tire shop not being able to balance any of them. I have read a couple horror stories but everyone says they are great to work with. I’m looking at a set of 35/12.50R20 in the claw 2. Not worried about road noise when I know I’m putting on a mud tire lol

The tire shop either has to Road force balance them or balance them in “ Static mode” the tires actually hold up really well, I was supprised how long the 33”s I traded my brother lasted him. They are loud, But man oh man do they hook.

I don’t have a vehicle with them on anymore, they are excessively loud, No louder than most Mt”s. I know when I orderd my 33”s this was before they started doing the Bead to bead, and I requested all TOYO carcass and for some reason they sent me two tires pre drilled for studs. But $590for 5 shipped to my door I didn’t care lol

I am going to get them next round. The pricing is unreal.

After the horror stories i have heard about treadright tires falling apart, I would steer clear. This explains why they have trouble balancing. Stick with a brand name tire. You get what you pay for.

Retreads, and no guarantee on how many miles on the old carcass

Wow. Didnt know treadright tires were retreads. All makes sense now!

There not retreads anymore- Haven’t been for at least 3-4 years now. They do their own Bead to bead.


I would recommend going are their website and reading the “News section” lots of good info in there. On a side note retreads/recaps are not a bad tire.

Not after all of the pics and bad reviews i have seen. Sections of tire tread are literaly tearing off.

I hear ya, only tire I have ever had come apart on me personally was a firestone and the tread fully separated, destroyed the fender well. The above stated is just my opinion, that’s all. I know a guy that put them on his 1 ton dually dodge and had issues with his front end, no one could say if it was the tires or if it was the parts because the parts where under recall after all. 1/2 ton or under I can say I would run them all day long. 3/4ton or above.. I just don’t know, But hey semi trucks are rolling around on retreads... so who knows...
