Looking for a Wild Country Tire store

Hey all,

I am looking for a tire dealer that sells Wild Country tires somewhere around the central OH area. Havent called them all, but figured I would try here first.

Thanks,
Digger

I've run them for years, and won't go back. (Les Schwaub sells them here).

Probably ran close to 10 sets on all my work rigs 10 years ago. None of them wore very well, unlike the Michelins I have now. FWIW

I don't think you'll find them in OH. Only the Western states. I used the XTR's and haven't had any problems. Good traction in all weather. For me they are the only tire dealer close to me, so service is an important factor.

Hmm, I thought they were a brand from Les Schwab tires based out of Oregon. I suppose it's possible there's a connection between them and Kelly.

I looked all over the Kelly-Springfield website, and couldnt find anything on them anywhere.
A google search of Wild Country Tires will bring back a few Les Schwab hits, but I just thought they were a dealer for 'em....

I've only owned one set of Wild Country's several years back and traded the truck before I had a chance to form an opinion. The way companies consolidate and change hands these days if Kelly ever owned the brand who knows who does now. I can say I've only noticed one truck running them around here recently. Distribution must not be big in this area.

Yeah, I see just a few sets around here in OH too. I ran a set through 55,000 (mudders!) and loved em. Twas a bit loud, but I kinda like it, as long as the radio can keep up. Heard good things about the Dunlop wear too, and still may end up with good ol All Terrain TAs
