Tire price hikes coming at us
The local Farm Store tire manager told me last week to 'Hang on' because tires are about to take a big leap in price real soon.
Like they aren't expensive enough already. I don't know percentage wise tonite how much but thought I would pass it along. Has anyone else heard this?? |

Re: Tire price hikes coming at us
I recently bought tires for my Model A and when I picked them up my supplier said I got them just before price from his supplier went up $20 per tire.
I bought tires for my modern last week and the price seemed average, but who knows what difference a few weeks will make. |

Re: Tire price hikes coming at us
My tires are abt 16 years old. They are still in nice shape but I got curious. So I looked at the date codes, and then checked out Coker, and Snyders. WOW! Snyders it's $1,047, and Coker is $1,217.

Re: Tire price hikes coming at us
It’s called inflation, no pun intended. When the government prints money like it’s free it devalues what you have in your bank account. I saw where one South American country removed 6 digits from their currency just so they could calculate.

Re: Tire price hikes coming at us
If a producer of pretty much anything wants to get more money from their product all they need to do is send out a press release to the news agencies saying that there might be a shortage. If one of them uses it as a story... bingo prices go up.

Re: Tire price hikes coming at us
These all must be fake posts as the administration says there’s not really any inflation.

Re: Tire price hikes coming at us
Well, if at least Model A Ford values go stagnant I guess that may bring more folks into the hobby
 I was going to throw a set of used tires away I guess now I'll stick them in the corner of the garage. They are Rayon and have no cracks or show any aging. Another Model A Ford part not to toss. The pile is getting bigger. |

Re: Tire price hikes coming at us
We have to pay for all the "free" stimulus money. Free money comes with a price.

Re: Tire price hikes coming at us
Those who are complaining should have used their free money for new tires. That's what I did....new Goodyears from Bert's. Problem solved.
