The shop we used to get the duratracs from on Argyll, just east of 75st has moved to 50st and Roper Rd.   It's a Fountain Tire on the NE corner of intersection.

IME, you need to phone around A LOT on tire prices.  The retail tire business in Canada is one step away from organized crime.

if you are looking for Toyo and want to use Kal then the brand they go under in Nitto (same tire different name) Open County = Terra Grappler

They are excellent Tires, highmay, snow, mud etc

.....no one wants the old Mercedes offroad camper, but I mention some old tires and everyone's in :)

It seems the 235 85 R16 BFG KM2 Tires are difficult to obtain new now, and may be discontinued. This size is closest to the 7.50x16. They are still available new though some outlets.

The toyo's are good, and will be available for at least a few more years. I use Toyo M-55 tires on the work truck, and they stand up well to pavement, brush, and gravel roads. Worse in mud than some Open Country or KM-2's. Haven't got the M-55's stuck yet in the woods.

Some of the open country treads don't seem very different to what Hankook has copied in their cheaper AT and MT tires.
