Catalog #s are generally assigned to a part for obvious reasons which brings me to the question , where did the #s SS33A SS-11 SS-22 etc come from.

So the #s 11-22-33-55 don't mean anything other than just a sequence ? They could have very well been labeled 5-10-15-20 ?
Apparently so.....even received some hate messages from others about thatYou should stick to consulting on dry rotted 5" 7.10's...

I believe you could have worded that a little better, but essentially you made the correct point. Perhaps the hate mail people didn't know what sequence meant. All they saw was the, "don't mean anything" part.So the #s 11-22-33-55 don't mean anything other than just a sequence ? They could have very well been labeled 5-10-15-20 ?

Jeff, as Kurt said they are just a number sequence. Hoosiers run the same way, d10, rd12, d15, d20, d30, rd35 (all the ones we have for our 600 micro, not 100% if they all carry over to karts) with the 10s being softest. Pretty sure the SS stood for "Solution Series" back in the day. I've had lots of soft Burris through the years, t2s, k21s, dxcs, d21s, ss11s....
I didn't understand your question in the way that you intended it to be answered. If you want actual part numbers as opposed to what they're called, that's easy too.....
981633 = 11 x 8.1-6 SS-33A
950622 = 11 x 5.0-6 SS-22
960611 = 11 x 6.0-6 SS-11
9 prefix is a tire with the next 3 digits being the size and the last ones are the compound
I think you can see the pattern and fill in the blanks. Racers aren't typically referencing tires by part number, they are referencing by a physical parameter. We work both ways with them when taking the orders. Some work with part numbers (981633) and some work with the physical reference (8.1 SS-33A or 11 x 8.1-6 SS-33A) in the same way as someone asking the guy at the counter for an 8' fluorescent bulb with the specifics you detailed above.
Typically it is easier to work with the physical description when talking with someone.

Kurt, In the PN system you listed above, how would you be able to tell if I want a B33B or a B33A?
