best place to by military tires?

[clownracer]

im looking for a set of 37/12.5/16.5 i have seen em online with 95%+ tread for 100 bucks online but shipping kills the price brake is there anywhere to grab a set local?(prefer springs area)

something like this guy
http://www.100dollarman.com/tires.html

[Patrolman]

They can ship by freight truck which might help with the cost, but it still won't be cheap.

[scout man]

I seem to remember a former member buying some locally, but I cant remember where he said he got them. Ill think on it.

Try this place: http://www.coldwarremarketing.com/

I don't see tires on this site, but if you call them I'd bet the could at least refer you to someone else local.

[cfr]

This guy is on one of the JK forums. He's in CA, but may also be able to refer you to someone local,

http://www.100dollarman.com/

And these guys are in Ogden, UT (found them when when I had my M35 "duece and a half" fantasy),

Again, maybe only for a referral.

I know there is a military auction site that lists Ft Carson. Search military auctions, might be able to track down a number on the base.

[4runner freak]

So, what did they cost? How much tread? Size? Did they mount them there?
They are just A/Ts? Did they have M/Ts?
