So clearly you do not understand the process. I explained why it is that the tires are available from pro-line and not on amain. To assume means to suppose without proof. Like I stated the limited amount of tires are because of the way a product is brought to market. I also explained why amain hasn't put them on their site.

Please, if you knew all of this already then why did you ask?

I guess its hard to sense sarcasm over the internet. R.Shackelford guy doesnt work for proline so what he says is just a educated guess. He has no idea what proline's exact product process is. The thread is about proline ion tires maybe it will get on subject and internet experts will chill out

So I see now Proline is releasing the Ion for 2.2 buggy rear and 4WD buggy front. Wonder when those will hit...

It gives amain financial security in ordering a bunch of expensive new cars..
Parts in bold:

No, it is not where Pro-line is (or was). If they are in fact selling tires on their site then the product is done. They don't use paying customers as prototype testers.

Amain gets no financial support from pre-ordering, they do not charge customers money until they have product in stock to ship. It helps them to forecast but there is no guarantee that all customers will leave their orders in place, especially if the availability date is bumped back.
