Interco

[Jay'94]

Anybody heard any poop on Interco?? Last I heard was a month and a half ago that they had molds and another manufacturer was manufacturing and they were in soome kinda testing. Anybody heard anything resent??? Not that I ain't got two sets of 'em and neither one looking to wear out quick since I only run 'em off road exceept getting there. Just really want to know before I get rid of the wimpy 33x12.50x15 and stick to the 37s or so for sure!!

k so heres what it says on the interco website, they offer no explanation other than this dosen't even say if they do this or if thats how they dont do things sounds a little sketchy to me...
" Many brands of tires are made from generic specifications which means there are many "brand names" coming out of a particular factory but all the tires have a common specification basic body or casing. The only difference is the mold the tire is cured in. The tires will have different tread designs but the body of the tire is common to many others of the same size but under various names."

Ill help you guys out since i know the story except for the government stuff.

Interco tires were made by denman tire. Which went bankrupt 2yrs ago and the whole thing has just finished. I have a denman warehouse like 2 mins from my house. Also my mom's ex's dad had worked for them,there is now a new company named titan that bought denman. So im not sure what the tires will still be like if the compounds are changing or what.

PS! I know its a old thread but didnt want to leave you guys hanging on tires.

As you may already be aware, Denman Tire, one of Interco's tire manufacturers went bankrupt in March 2010 and sold its assets to Titan Tire Corporation. As a result, rumors quickly spread across the internet stating that Interco (a.k.a. Super Swamper) had gone out of business. Luckily, those rumors were not true. Interco and Denaman were two completely independent companies and while all of the tires produced by Denman for Interco (which, unfortunately, happened to be a majority of them) were put on-hold, Boggers, Iroks, and M16s continue to be produced at other facilities.

As Interco continues to work on having their tire molds shipped to other tire manufacturers, tire availability has been hit-or-miss. In an effort to help our customers sort through their options, we've compiled this list of currently available Super Swamper tires. The list is up to date as of 1/16/11 and while we will do our best to keep it current, tires listed here are not guaranteed to be in stock.
