Default i ordered new mickeys today, but there are new ones

edit, i ordered part number 3016's today. 24.5/9x13


i dont know if it is a compound change, or what but they are 25 bucks more than the old ones. i have a friend that has a hookup with keystone and there is 1 for for the old price, and all the rest are 25 more.

i am assuming there is a production change or thats just the last one at the old price?

thanks in advance. (i hope these tires are up to the hype everyone has said)

That is the standard part number for those. I have ordered probably 50+ set of those this past year.

That's my hope, as good as they are. Hope they made them better. If they did change them, that is

Yeah, add sales tax and shipping onto the $376 and think DAMN! Its cheaper to buy the 26's lol.

I worked @ advance and I thought Keystone was always really high on their stuff. But I was mostly looking @ body panels.

They probably raised the price on some sizes, due to getting shafted by NHRA.
