If those are around the same price as they are now, I'll be the first person on the block with those in 15's

Very nice! Any idea what kind of mileage you can expect to get out of these or how they perform compared to the old MT tread design?

they share tread design with the krawler. The krawler is nearly unstopable.

^^^ Probably not great. Snow and mud take 2 totally different kinds of tire. If you have heavy snow (I see you live in Colorado) you don't want any mud tire. AT or dedicated snow tires are your best bet...

16.5 is out the door

heck there are not many sizes in 15s anymore.

guys with the money for those tires probably run 17s or more!

Is that price acurate? I can't find anything showing a price.

that price is so high because those are limited edition tires. They didnt make many of them and the mold for a single tire is very very pricey. they were made for a SEMA vehicle originally IIRC.

thats the point of this thread. They are producing them. The 22" rim size was a limited edition tire. They are going to be making them in all sizes.

16.5" rims are not being sized out. and BFG has already told people these tires will be out for 16.5" rims.

Military hummer rims are 16.5" wheels and they are very popular among off-roaders because you can get double-beadlocked wheels (often times with 36" tires attached to em) for REALLY cheap. I've seen 4 brand new ones with wheels and tires go for $400.
