Just curious if anyone has ordered tires or tubes from "tire town" in Kansas...???
If so, were you happy with how everything went?

I purchased a pair of fronts, no problem.
I wanted a pair of rears at a sale price, seemed to never come in.
They have lots of sizes in stock, just not my size I guess,  of course I'm always looking for the weird ones

I had one small problem. They have a 8 inch pipe set in cement, in middle of entrance drive ,to shut 2 large gates against ,at closing time. Ater loading 2 sets of large tires in back of pickup,I was backing up to leave and found out this post could move into side of truck with great force. Tires in back didnt help vision any but should have seen post. Good to do deal with over many years.

Good prices and good people to do buisiness with. Got a full set for my 45 and they repaired my rear rims.

Joe - I agree their "sale" prices on the web are a "bait & switch" scheme.  I tried to get firm quotes out of them for the new rears on my 180 but they refused to quote anything in writing so I told them I'd take my business somewhere else.  I took my business to the wholesale side of Lee Tire in Columbia, MO who my cousin (a small time tire dealer himself) dealt with at the time.  I believe they have changed ownership since then.  I was very happy with the service and pricing I got there.  Mike

I just looked.  They don't list tubes.  Anyone got a good(CHEAP) source for tubes?

They sell tubes also.  I have purchased several tires and tubes from them, from front tri rib to trailer and implament  tires with a great deal of satisfaction.  I however have not been able to get rear tractor tires for one reason or another.

 Blast from the past! I worked at Tire Town in the early eighties. More recently I did buy some front tires and tubes for my WD from them.
