Anyone running Super Swamper M16's?

they say it's the perfect mix for on and off road use (atleast for a super swamper!)

The tread pattern is super agressive. that's why i like it!

I was wondering though, has anyone used them?

And what would be th eexpected mileage, tread wear, etc.

If anyone has any info I'd appreciate it.

Pics would work too!

I've read one magazine test that gave them a favorable review.

guys just to throw alittle something out there:

The M16 is still an Interco tire. They will be a softer tread compound and most likely will be loud, and wear pretty quick

Im not saying this is not a good tire, I actually think it will be a great tire time will tell

what im saying is dont get your hopes TOO high, Tigers dont change their stripes Interco isnt changing rubber compound just a different tread design.

Im a BIG fan of Interco and probably wont run a MT that isnt Interco owned.

id expect 30k out of a set so if you get more than you can be very surprised lol

I think I remember reading somewhere that they are supposed to get 40000 miles out of a set.

yeah "supposed to" and "reality" are pretty far from each other.

They are MT's that are meant to be offroaded. IF they are used for their purpose you wont get the predicted mileage since you are spinning them on rocks, sticks, and even sand can wear on a tire.

I do hope people get this expected 40k that would be great

and i hope they offer this tire in a 40+ eventually

Crushers are pretty cool tires, none of the shops i talk to have sold any, or new of anyone running them.

too bad they dont have the size i need... if they come out with a 44x19.5x16.5 i might give them a go.

m16's

I put my 37's on yesterday and they are great. Went from 35" mud grapplers to these. They are really quite and smooth riding. My buddy has a set of toyo m/t's and i would say that these tires are every bit as quite as the toyo's. I will put up some pic's here in a little while.
