Default Looking for 37 12.5 17 General Grabbers saw them at SEMA
So I was fortunate enough to go to SEMA for the first time and I saw a few rigs out there with 37x12.5x17 Red Letter Grabbers. I;m looking to get new tires and figured these would be at a better price point than the BFG's and look more aggressive than wild peaks.

Any clue where to get them. I did a search, but from what I read a few month back they still weren't out.

The 37" general red letter tire is not available to the public. From what I was told from a friend who had a set, he had to get them from a race team that previously ran them

I spoke to one of the General reps at the Off Road Expo a few weeks back...he said the 37 Grabbers are hand made race only. Apparently their tire forms are only big enough to do up to 35s so they have to hand make the 37s and they're non-DOT...

Long story short, probably not gonna happen
