Carlisle Chevrons Discontinued Effective July 1, 2009
Guys,
I just got off the phone with a Carlisle dealer in the lower 48.
The Carlisle Chevron tire (22x11.00-8, Part #531950) has been discontinued as of July 1, 2009, and is no more. There is no replacement according to Carlisle. I snagged up 9 of the 10 he had on hand, and they are starting their long journey to Homer, Alaska.
I was also told that Carlisle is producing a new tire design specifically for Argo.
My thinking is, for those who may want to run factory tracks on older Argos, the options for tires are gradually fading away. There are still plenty of these Carlisle Chevrons out there in inventory, so now is the time to buy if you want them.
This looks like the death of the last ATV chevron tire made in America. I was informed by the dealer that he will soon be carrying a new tire from China that is a close replacement, at $3 less than he charged me for the Carlisle.
