looking for 280 tire on 20' rim

[miket@wattsenterprises]

Anyone know of a source I can get 280 40 20 rear tire for 2008 Pitbull. sounds like no one produces this size tire anymore.

I think kansasmotorcyleworks has a few still. Apparently they are $450 or something like that.

If they are that hard to find over there, it seems you can get them over here in the UK. I know, ironic ain't it. lol

Kind of messed up that all the tire companies would just stop making that tire size.

There has to be an answer, too many 08 and 09 Pitbulls out there that will need rear tires. Same true for the wolf, it runs a 20" on rear.

I have been able to purchase 2 new rear tires from other BDM members , but dont know of a source. I called the marketing director at Avon and she said the only production run of this size would be if BDM in Kansas could get an order together of around 200. There is a guy here in UT with a new one for sale but he wants a sily price for it.

Ill check with a dealer here in Utah who had a few to see if he sold them, if not what he is asking for them. Last time I checked he was asking close to $500.00 ea.
