Pizzo,
I saw on the second generation site that there is a company called treadwright that makes tires for our trucks. The only thing is they are retreads. I have been following that discussion for a while because I needed some for a jeep we have. The offroad forums love these tires. Hope this helps. I looked at the tires for our duallys and they are 90 a piece.
