Default treadwright??
Really? They have my eye for the 35s... Nothing but good reviews everwhere and on backorder for awhile... Their website says their 315/70/17s are 10.7' wide... Isn't that a bit narrow?

Depends on the carcass they come from, and how much, if any, wider their process makes them.

Other than TW's site, I've NEVER seen both tread width and section width published for a tire. Anyone?

Interco tire has had that info up on their site for many years now.

I think Nitto's website gives you all the specs also.

Got to take a close look at a set of Treadwrights this weekend. You almost can't see the casting seam. They gripped very well on slippery hardpack and deep mud.

Gonna get these MT's in 35"s for my next set. I mean $150 a tire!!!! Hells ya
