Co-op tires

[grand_wag_85]

Anyone know where to get Co-op brand tires? I've been to several Co-op stores that sell tires and they only sell BFG, Goodyear and the other big name tires. I asked for the Co-op brand tires by name and they told me they've never heard of them.

I have looked everywhere for Co-Op Grip Spur tires. Back in the day(20 yrs ago) they were all we ever ran. A little aggesive in the sand but GREAT in the mud. We used to get them at our Southern States Co-op.

a suitable replacement can be found at Sams occasionally..

They may be able to help - they sell the co-op brand.

We find that the plant code (PK) on my Grip Spurs reveals that my tires where made by the KELLY-SPRINGFIELD TIRE COMPANY (note that K-S is a wholly owned subsidiary of Goodyear these days) in the FREEPORT, ILLINOIS, plant.

Still can get COOP tires in the South...well at least middle TN...my stomping grounds. If ya want I can go see if they have what ya need..they probably can ship to your nearest COOP.

asgmkg-
If you could talk with them and see if they can get them that would be great!

I've seen 3 trucks with gripspurs lately and on all of the trucks the tires looked new. I did not get a chance to talk with the owners tho.

Hope your sitting down because the last time I priced them through the local mom and pop store here they were 239.00 each 6-months ago!!!!:eek: :eek:

I know Chaffee Tire and wheel here can get them, lots of farmers that will not run anything else.:cool:

Have you tried the Co-ops in Fruita or Carbondale?

[Long&Low]

I've found some places them carry, whilst searching the web, but they are pricey, and I just need a fifth for my spare.

Been to both stores in person and was told that they had never heard of them. Also tried Meeker and Craig.

Talked to Phil and he found them thru Mr. Tire back east.
