    Source for tubes?

    I ran over a nail in the road and put a little hole in one of my 315/35/17 Nittos. I got a plug put in it, but I know that won't hold up when I have the primal urge to smoke the tires. Does anyone know a good source where I could get 17" tubes? I would preferrably like to get a radial tube. I can't find these anywhere online.

    thanks

    I think they still sell those nittos brand new. You might have to bite the bullet if it lets go. It really sucks with low profile tire prices. I had a little bulge in one of my 225-35-18 paradas and I had to replace the tire. $180 it really sucked

      I've got a single 315/35/17" Nitto DR I'll sell if you want it! I had two on my '94 and hurt one of them in an accident, the other is perfectly fine and is probably 50-60% tread left (not saying much for a Nitto, but it's definately over the wear bars). Let me know if you don't want to go the tube route.

        On the way to Grove Creek I got a screw in my stock tire. Had the gas station put a plug in it and continued on to Grove Creek. It was a long plug and super sticky. Most if it went into the tire and he just cut off about an inch. Must be 5 inches in the tire itself. I did burnouts and leaving the line hard with no issues. Guy at the gas station said it woudn't be an issue and never come out. So I figured what the hell. I was spinning the tires through first and second and didn't have any issues.

          If it is a drag tire you need to call hooser north in rogers, mn. You need to get an all natural rubber tube because it is a drag radial. They are not cheep most are 35-50 bucks each. If you need a phone number give me a call at work and I will get you the number. My work number is 763-428-1081 ask for matt

            Wiplash,
            I'll more than likely get that DR off of you. Either PM me or post here with your phone number.

            thanks
