I purchased my so called MTH tires from a MTH repair tech at a local train show. It was my understanding these were MTH tires. All well.

IMO, they are not genuine MTH tires. I've never seen an MTH tire that thick, and I've been using them for a long time.

Besides Lionel and MTH, who else makes replacement traction tires close to this size? Are they any better or worse?

Traction tires aren't a big business, not sure if there are other sources. I've seen them advertised from time to time with no source, but I haven't been tempted to buy any of them. I'd like to find a source for the narrow tires for brass, that seems to be a market void.
