I don't think he's open sunday. I'll find out tomorrow and post it. He had tires stacked to the ceiling so I'm sure he has your size. Considering these guys make most of there business after the first snow fall he may be open?

Thanks Frank...
Chuck sent me a www.herculestire.com link on the signets.
Judgeing by what I could see in the pic of the tire, the tread spacing looks a little tight. I'm going to go back to L&B tire on Sherry to look at another Hercules winter tire with what looked like very wide tread spacing. I really don't drive the Ranger much, so I think that the winter tires I choose should work well in medium to deep snow as opposed to all around performance.

I have Goodyear Wrangler RT/S's. They came with the truck almost brand new. I live out in the country so I need a tire that can handle a little bit more and they've done just fine.....so far. I hear that as they wear down their performance goes away quickly.

Kinda takes the fun out of winter driving but thats excactly what I wanted. Too old to be doin' donuts in the parking lot anyway!
